Canada: Immigrants and Immigration System

canada: From my point of view, the way to ensure that our immigration system meets the needs of Canada is to put the focus on recruiting the most talented economic immigrants, according to CBC. While Canada must continue to accept refugees and family immigrants, our immigration system must prioritize developing a workforce that will meet the economic and demographic challenges of 21st century Canada. As part of the consultation, all Canadians have until Aug. 5 to send in their thoughts on what our immigration system should look like. In order to do this, 75 per cent of all immigrants to Canada must be economic immigrants. Immigrants who come here without job offers here should not be our focus. Of this, the vast majority should be individuals chosen by employers, not government. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
