Dalhousie University: Immigration

James McNiven Dept: It is not an idea you hear very often. But it is exactly what James McNiven proposed, albeit more for dramatic effect, at the annual Palmer Conference on immigration at the University of PEI this summer, according to CBC. But McNiven, a professor emeritus of public policy at Dalhousie University , and a former deputy minister of development in Nova Scotia, feels it is an absolute necessity to avoid economic catastrophe and you know all those "illegal aliens," meaning the Mexican migrant workers that the Americans want to throw out? If we had any sense, we'd bring them to Canada. Every single speaker and contributor at the conference agreed immigration is good for Canada's growth and prosperity. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
