Federal Vote: Immigration Programs

Ontario Economy Dept: The province wants more say in which immigrants it takes in to help boost the Ontario economy and a freer hand to provide better services to new Canadians settling here, McGuinty said, following up on resolutions passed in the Legislature that call for a new deal, according to The Star. Ontario wants the same control over immigration programs as Quebec, Manitoba and British Columbia, so that the province can get a larger share of economic-class immigrants and more control over how money is spent on settlement programs to help immigrants adjust to life in the province and ontario Premier Dalton McGuinty is renewing his push for a better immigration deal from Ottawa. The reality is right now we re being held back by an uneven playing field, the premier told reporters Wednesday with less than two weeks to go until the May 2 federal vote. As reported in the news.
