Why do you think the government of Canada is interested in attracting new immigrants?
• Increase population• Aging population; low birth rate
• Sustain economic growth• By 2036, Canada will have only 2 working Canadians for each
retiree; currently a 4:1 ratio.
• Attract new skills/trades• Workers shortfalls in a vast range of occupations from doctors to
brick layers.
• Recruiting dynamic entrepreneurs will help Canada remain competitive in the global economy
