Immigration Problem

immigration problem: Our immigration program has been a failure, according to The Chronicle Herald. While there may be a number of explanations for our immigration problem, the main one is a lack of jobs. Most immigrants come looking for jobs. Unfortunately, we do not have enough work for our own people, let alone immigrants. Our failure to attract and keep immigrants is also connected to our loss of population and We do not attract the number of immigrants that we want, and we lose about 25 per cent of those who do come. Even the skilled-immigrant program, so highly touted by the outgoing NDP government, has failed. Many could not find work compatible with their qualifications. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
