In the article “Canada’s Immigration System Is No Kinder than America’s”, Adnan Khan speaks to the refocusing of Canada’s immigration system on short-term economic needs, rather than investing in high-skilled workers or ethical immigration policy. Khan documents ethical changes in immigration pathways such as Canada’s Temporary Foreign Worker program, Refugee programs, and family reunification efforts which indicate the changing discourse around migrants from developing countries, Canada’s obligation to protect these migrants, and the sharing of resources and nationhood. This essay will critically analyze the examples and arguments presented in “Canada’s Immigration System Is No Kinder Than America’s” in order explore concepts of “worthiness”,
Canada is a nation known for the multicultural population. It is seen as an attractive destination for the great social policies adopted by the charismatic leaders the country was able to create. Since the 1800’s, Canada’s immigration laws were severely restricted to non-whites, nevertheless, the country has now evolved to encompass all ethnicities equally. Canada’s identity, especially since the 1950’s and onwards, experienced rapid growth and change. This can be seen through the following examples: Immigration, Pierre Trudeau and the F.L.Q crisis.
Canada has a little piece of almost every culture in the world, shown through the large amount of people moving to Canada from every continent in the world. The multitude of cultures is displayed through the plethora of festivals held throughout the country every year, such as the Folk Fest, Edmonton Food Festival, Heritage Festival and the International Film Festival, all bringing in various cultures and traditions from around the world. Canada has all of these festivals due to the large amount of immigration that was even shown in Anita Rau Badami’s essay my Canada, when she and her husband had moved from India to Vancouver. Canada is one if not the most desirable countries to immigrate to, not only for the living conditions but because of the ability to keep your culture and not have to assimilate to a “Canadian” culture. Thanks to immigration Canada has become a great model country to look at for cultural diversity and cultural acceptance that any country can look at and try to model in their own

Secondly, decrease the tuition, for example, international student have to pay more than Canada students for their tuition.
The Canadian population is made up of several, diverse generations, the baby boom generation is the most defining, and most significant of all. The baby boom is a sudden rise in the number of labours. When an unexpected fall in the amount of labours is identified it is considered over. The soldiers coming back from World War II were racing to arise their families which resulted in the Baby Boom. Why was the baby boom the most defining and significant moment in Canadian history?
Immigration bring great benefits. Without immigration, the population would stop growing, The goal is to keep it stable, not to get rid of all of it completely. Immigration keeps the population and also the economy growing. But when massive amounts of people are immigrating to America, it becomes overwhelming to some people. The government must slow down the process of immigration soon.
Humans have a need to categorize the world around them. We like things to be labeled and orderly. Dividing humans up into races probably started innocently enough. Basing the races on geographic location and observable, objective traits like skin colour and facial features isn’t inherently bad, but becomes problematic when one group decides they are superior and begins attributing negative characteristics to other races. The Europeans did exactly that when they needed reasons to justify their colonization and enslavement of other people.
The improvement of the rights of the Canadian Immigrants Canada, as one of the biggest immigration countries, welcomes people from all over the the world and forms a representative multicultural atmosphere in today’s society. Over these few decays, the country has always been consummating the laws to provide immigrants equal rights and freedoms, and better treatments they could receive. However, Canadian immigration laws were not unprejudiced and it eventually caused a “legal discrimination” before 1976. The legal rights of the immigrant groups have improved significantly because of the demands of developing the country, the influences of the wars, and the globalization of the world. Since 1880s, more immigrants and foreigners came to Canada because of the railway construction project.

Two differences being that discrimination has decreased tremendously, refugees are now accepted, and one similarity being that there are job opportunities.

For example, in the residential schools, First Nation children had been stripped from their families and forcefully put into schools. They tried to assimilate anything resembling First Nations.
When we pay close attention to the global. We can see that the population in the United States of America has grown due to that fact of immigrants. Nowadays immigrants from China, Mexico, Spain, and other parts of the country have come to the U.S. and automatically receive Birthright Citizenship. All it took was for the child to be born in the U.S and automatically they are granted with the same benefits as the main U.S Citizens. Also if we ask our self, “ Why are so many immigrants from all over the world continually coming to the U.S and decide to stay there?”
Immigration has been and will continue to happen all around the world. There are so many reasons for people who come from different countries and ethnicities to move from country to country. The reasons why these people immigrate is either they are simply forced to, due to violence and hostility or that they are in search of a better life for them, and or their family etc. Canada being rated number one in quality of life has been a goal for people wanting to immigrate. The Immigration and Refugee Protection Act ( IRPA) was established by the Canadian government in the year 2002.
Immigration is advantageous to our society as it can not only imbue our nation with new ideas, but also brings in workers who will take jobs that many native-born citizens will not. The main drawback of mass immigration is the difficulty of providing citizenship to so many (Wilkinson).

Over the centuries, population growth has been an issue of concern, It most recent years that concern has grown into the issue of feeding the planets large population. Technology has answered that call in the form of Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs). The purpose of GMOs is for more than just additional food and the Department of Agriculture and the United States Food and Drug Administration have created laws and regulations that must be followed. Despite these rules, the everyday citizen is still concerned over the consumption of GMOs that can be purchased at the supermarkets and stores.
