University Of Toronto : Reitz

Ipsos Dept: A worldwide poll by Ipsos found 56 per cent of Canadian respondents think immigration has put too much pressure on public services in Canada compared to 17 per cent who disagreed with the statement while 22 per cent were neutral and four per cent said they did not know, according to Vancouver Sun. "Immigrants are actually helping us pay for these things, not the other way around," he said, citing research showing immigrants tend to use social services less than Canadian-born citizens and make positive fiscal contributions to the country and more than half of Canadians think immigrants are a burden on the country's strapped social services and two-thirds believe the federal government should give priority to educated or highly skilled foreigners when considering who to let into the country. However, it is a misconception that immigrants are costly, Jeffrey Reitz, an expert in immigration and pluralism at the University of Toronto, said. As reported in the news.
