Why do people migrate? Why do they want to come to Canada?

Push Factors - Things that encourage a person to leave their home country. Pull Factors - Things that attract a person to settle in another country.

How do we decide who is allowed into our Country?

For economic immigrants Canada has a point system that considers: Education (25) Language proficiency (24) Work Experience (21) Age (10) Pre-arranged employment in Canada (10) Adaptability (10) Need 67 of 100 total points to enter. In 2010 most immigrants came from Asia: Philippines 13% India 10.8% China 10.8%

Most immigrants settle in urban centers. Why? Connection to cultural community Employment opportunities Availability of services Of the 1.6 million immigrants between , ¾ settled in our 3 largest cities.

Not every immigrant has a good experience however? Why?

Moving Around: Migration Within Canada If you could move to any province within Canada, which one would it be? What are your personal pull factors for this province? Out-migration - when people leave a province or territory. In-migration - when people come to live permanently in a province/territory
