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
Our current immigration system is broken, harms our economy, and does not reflect our values as a nation. Without true immigration reform, we suffer severe economic, cultural, fiscal and political strains in communities across America. Immigration has become an urging issue in legislation on both the national and state levels. Immigration legislation made the policy agenda in all 50 states in 2007, with 46 states enacting into law a total of 240 immigration-related bills. This proposal of the “Fairness for High-Skilled Immigrants Act of 2015” (H.R.213) stands out as the most promising measure to fix part of the problems.
Refugee accommodations are not sustainable ways of life, putting a greater pressure on governments to speed up their processes and to allow more refugee’s into safe countries. As a result of those extremes, until the wars are over or one is accepted into a safe country, refugees are left with limited options. With an increase in support from countries across the globe, paired with the assistance given by many individual citizens within these safe countries, with each week an increasing number of refugees are able to relocate to Canada. Although many do find positive outcomes from being safe away from war, due to the intense demands of integration many are left still with very little supports to recover from their past experiences. (The Welcome

The impact that it has on families is complex and often culturally specific. This essay will explore the impacts of immigration on families in Canada, focusing on its effect on family, dynamics, socialization, and cultural integration.

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 presentation on “Immigration” by Anne Marie, Kimberly, Yashkumar, Meardreed, and myself covered many aspects of the immigration issue in the United States as well as some discussion questions at the end of the presentation to interact with the audience. For the purpose of this essay, I will only be focusing on my part of the presentation, which was the disadvantages of immigration in the United States. As we know by now, just like benefits there are also costs of immigration we have to bear with if we were to let more immigrants come to our country. Some of those costs can be immigration increasing job competition, working conditions deteriorating for the poor, illegal immigrants lowering wages, and illegal immigrants costing our government financially, among other things. These factors are what makes us question if immigration is worth it at the end of the road.

DHS had also found that around 11.5 million were actually illegal immigrants. Well, what does this mean, how does that affect us, and what can we do about it? Why is this topic so heavily debated in the United States?
What factors influence immigration policies in Canada (i.e., education, economic, political, health, security)? Education/Economic - Canada chooses Immigrants that have a high education level or job experience so they can make a living in Canada on their own.

Each year, thousands of people from all over the world choose to immigrate to Canada in search of better opportunities and a higher standard of living. The decision to immigrate to Canada involves various factors such as economic stability, social welfare, cultural diversity, and political engagement opportunities.

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.

However, providing a path to citizenship for undocumented immigrants is favored by the majority of American citizens, and research shows that they help the American economy and lower the national crime rate well below the current statistics. Immigration policies are a vital part of any nation’s economy, and any changes can induce drastic changes. Canada, a nation with radically different immigration policy than the United States of America, enjoys the benefits of multiculturalism. Their immigrant population is the most educated in the world, and despite growing the xenophobia in the west their population is still highly in favor of an influx of immigrants (Tepperman 5). It does not seem that, Canada suffers as a result of their immigration policies.
