Second, other key impact of globalization is the free movement of labor. In a globalized world, workers can more easily move from one country to another to market their skills to employers and contribute to the economy. As some Canadian entrepreneurs with the purpose of domestic business to grow, those companies have to capitalize on efficiency except looking outside the company as off-shoring, yet sometimes recruit foreign workers. Temporary migration is used strategically for national and regional economic development in Canada. Canada is flexibility to attract highly skilled migrants and to fill low-paid labour market niches in recent years.

Despite the argument that in the beginning of the 1900's, Canada's immigration policy was the most unrestrictive one, compared to those of other nations, from a history student's point of view in 2007, the "Open Door Policy" seems to have been quite selective about who it allowed entry into Canada. The fundamental factor that made the Canadian immigration policy a major hindrance to many types of people who wanted to emigrate was the prejudice with which the Canadians developed many beliefs. One of most significant of all was their racism over Asians. An epitome of a government action that was discriminating against Asians was the dramatic increase of the Chinese head tax in 1904, from $50 to what is ten times greater than that, $500. To compound…
Scandal: a disgraceful action with damage to reputation (Google). Though Canada may be a proud nation, much of the dark past is deeply buried. One of the many scandals of Canada includes forcing the Chinese to pay head taxes reveal Canada’s racist and unjust past. There is a significant relationship between the increasing amount of head taxes and the decreasing Chinese population in Canada. With the Gold Rush in the 1860s, many Chinese immigrants arrived in Canada to search for a fortune of their own. Little did they know that the head taxes would increase from fifty dollars to five hundred dollars in a matter of three years (n.a., Taxing) to reduce the numbers of Chinese immigrants. Inching its way with the small steps being taken to addressing…
How many immigrants should Canada be accepting; more, the same or fewer? Many people would say the intake should be less, others would say more, rarely will anyone agree that it should remain the same.

Another article, “Why Canada Needs Immigrants” entails the need for immigrants, for the fertility rate is low and consequently the need for skilled workers is high.…
Diversity and immigration have played a major role in Canada’s past, present and future, creating global strength and unity. Canada has become very well known for being a multicultural nation made up of many ethnicities, however this did not exist up until the second World War (WWII). It was during that period of time that the world realized how devastating discrimination can be and how important it is to be accepting of all races. Previously, Canada also showed discrimination against its immigrants through very selective processes and expensive duties. For example, the Chinese Immigration Act of 1885 posed certain restrictions on the Chinese immigrants. Very few were accepted and those that were had to pay a high head tax, reaching up to $500…
Being that I was born and raised in a Michigan town that borderers Canada, and given that I spent a good deal of time in Canada I grew to understand the culture, customs and values of the Canadian people and how they differ from ours. In general the population has an outstanding set of values. I always thought if Canada were a bit warmer, a lot of people from the United States would move there.…
“I have a dream that one day little black boys and girls will be holding hands with little white boys and girls.” ~ Martin Luther King Jr. Throughout the history of Canada there has always been an intolerance towards immigrants, There is a dream some people had for a utopian country, a country the is no longer defined by the color of your skin, the ways you act , the things you do or your beliefs, This dream of some people has still not been reached and most likely never will be, but Canada has greatly changed in many ways since 1914.the biggest problem is that most people do not realize that “Achievement has no color” ~ Abraham…

Canada’s immigration is very effective on the life, and wealth of all Canadians. There are many reasons why people immigrate. Some of the reasons are due to the political, economic health or security factors of the countries where immigrants come from. These are also the reason why people emigrate out of a country. Immigration is the act of coming to live permanently in a foreign country. Immigrants are needed in Canada to boost the population and help with the economic development. Even if you take into account the inhabitable parts of the north, we still have a very low population. Also, we have a birth rate of 1.7 children per woman in their lifetime. Pretend for a moment that we would never have any more immigrants; imagine how much our population would fall within 60 or so years. Immigration is the key role in building the Canada of tomorrow because at this rate, that the death rate matches the birth rate, their might not even be a Canada in the 22nd century. The immigration policy in Canada is effective because of the point…
