Points-Based System: Ontario Economy

points-based system: Immigrants are welcome in Canada because our immigration policy is based on economic self-interest rather than compassion, and because the points-based system ensures that no one ethnic group dominates others, according to Globe and Mail. And although the Ontario manufacturing sector has shed hundreds of thousands of jobs since 2000, the province as a whole is prospering, powered by the service-sector economy of Greater Toronto, the high-tech sector centred in Kitchener-Waterloo, and new, smaller, manufacturers springing up in Southwestern Ontario. Harper Conservatives also join other Canadians six-in-10, according to most polls in endorsing high levels of immigration. I reported on the Southwestern Ontario economy last February. If citizens trust their government to spend tax dollars on needed services, their police to treat them fairly, their central bank to protect a sound currency and so on, then populist uprisings will be few and weak. In this context, another word for happiness is trust. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
