Canada should increase immigration
In a recent study conducted by Canadian professor Tony Fang, he recommended that Canada should increase its immigration levels to bolster investment in housing and boost the nation’s gross domestic product. Fang, is a professor at the University of York in Vancouver. He said that adding 100,000 more immigrants a year to Canada’s population would increase the GDP by 2.3 percent. Moreover, the increase in population would create demands for goods and services, particularly housing. Fang also said that increased immigration would add $14 billion in tax revenue for the government.
Canada already has the highest immigration rate per capita out of all major countries. The country already has a number of skilled immigration programs to help deal with skills shortages in the labour force.
Fang says that Canada needs an additional one million immigrants; This would be an extra 100,000 immigrants a year during the period 2012 to 2021. This would also help the Canadian economy which is yet to recover fully from the Global Financial Crisis of 2008.
“To study the impacts of large-scale immigration on the Canadian economy, the researchers took into account many factors including: immigrants’ participation in the labour force; associated spending on government services and infrastructure; funds brought by immigrants; and labour market differences between migrants (in order to capture the effect of large-scale immigration on Canadian-born workers),” a press release on the study said.
