Canada Bets Big!
For many years, Canada has tried to attract permanent residents - landed immigrants who have the right to stay in the country indefinitely but who are not citizens - to keep the population and the economy growing. Last year, the country took in 405,000 permanent residents - the most in its entire history.
The reasons are in, some ways, about simple math. Like the USA, many western nations, Canada has an aging population with a lower birth rate. What that means is that if the country wants to grow, instead of shrink, it will have to bring in immigrants.
Immigration already accounts for practically all of the country's labour force growth, and by 2032, it is expected to account for all of the country's population growth too, according to a government news release.
Earlier this month, the government announced that by 2025, they hope to bring in 500,000 new immigrants a year, up about 25% from 2021 numbers.
So as you can see, you guys on this board are gonna be replaced by folks who, to quote MERLE HAGGARD: "go back to a time when a man could still work and would!" All you Old Lazy Fat Bigoted Red Neck White fVCKS are gonna go!
“Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free.”
