Economy: Country Ability and University Degree

economy: At least three-quarters of respondents in every group in Canada believe immigration has a positive effect on the economy, with support the strongest in Toronto, and among those with a university degree, according to Globe and Mail. Most Canadians continue to believe that immigration is good for the economy, and there is growing confidence in the country ability to manage refugees and potential criminal elements, said the survey, which was conducted this month and has tracked trends dating to the 1980s. The answer, the authors say, is no. Elsewhere, tensions are rising. In the United States, Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump has pledged to build a wall to keep Mexicans out, and has called for a complete shutdown of Muslims entering the country. In Europe, waves of migrants have prompted some countries to implement stricter border controls, while attacks against immigrants are growing. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
