john mccallum: Immigration Minister John McCallum speaks at a news conference in Vancouver on August 17, 2016, according to Huffington Post Canada. He is also conducting a series of consultations across Canada. John McCallum recently returned from a trip to China, where he lobbied officials to double or even triple the number of visa application centres in the country in an effort to open more doors for Chinese students, workers and tourists. Speaking after a roundtable of experts and business leaders in Vancouver, he said he hearing that the aging population means more young blood is needed to propel the economy, especially outside of big cities. "We would like to spread the immigrants across the country relatively evenly. The immigration minister trip to Beijing comes just before Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is set to travel to China for the G20 summit in September. The last thing we want is that every immigrant either goes to Toronto or Vancouver," he said Wednesday. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
