To date, the contributions that immigrants coming from China have provided to Canada have largely increased. Jason Kenny, the Minister of Citizenship, Immigration and Multiculturalism of Canada believes that, despite being discriminated against back in the past, the immigrants that come from China are still looking forward to making a much more effective and beneficial to the country of Canada and also to the Canadian Government.
The Chinese in Canada
In fact, twenty-five thousand people moved from the Republic of China and went to Canada only in 2009 alone. Moreover, the total population of Chinese individuals in Canada has reached more than one million, since China is actually regarded by experts as the second top resource of Canadian immigrants. And aside from that, it is also considered as the number one source of permanent residents who end up deciding to stay in Canada. It is only in China, alone, that Canada got over twenty-five thousand permanent residents.
According to statistical data, Chinese communities within Canada have stayed for longer than a hundred and fifty years. In fact, they were the ones responsible for building the Canadian Pacific Railway that somehow united Canada from its Eastern part to the Western part back in the 1860’s. Aside from this, majority of Canadian immigrants who originally came from China today are very successful in various professional fields in Canada.
Chinese gift to Canada
One of the many gifts offered by the Chinese people to Canada is their great business sense and work ethic. They also like to take risks, and this characteristic of theirs, alone, has definitely made Canadian business chains much better. The Chinese people are also much more compassionate with regards to hiring more and more people, which is also a good way for the Canadian residents to come up with their own financial income. Through out the small businesses that the Chinese have all over Canada, for sure, Canadians will never have a problem with regards to employment.
Since majority of the economic growth is largely dependent on the business industry of Canada, the Canadian immigrants from China have contributed a lot to the success of the Canadian economy. A huge part of this is because they are simply good working people, especially with regards to business, and they always work very hard.
Still, however, no matter how good in business they are or how much they have contributed to the Canadian Government, they will still be treated normally once they experience problems related to their immigration.
Foreign nationals who have an immigration status that might have lapsed because of certain delays in air traffic for the past few weeks can now breathe easily. In fact, Ottawa has been making some special allowances right after the airspace above Europe was shut down because of an ash plume that has been spewing from an Icelandic volcano.
In fact, immigration minister Jason Kenney has stated that temporary residents who have been unsuccessful in their attempts to leave the country because of disruptions in air travel, especially once their Visas have already expired on or after the fifteenth of April has absolutely no need to worry because their status will be automatically extended for an additional thirty days, all for free.
Today, based on Britain’s statistics, there are more than one million illegal immigrants living in the United Kingdom’s capital. This number is somehow twice the number the British Government initially predicted.
This report warns that the proposed amnesty for these illegal immigrants can add up to a total of more than two million members from the population. The reason behind this is because the over one million “regularized” illegal immigrants are entitled to bring with them at least one child, spouse, either husband or wife, and the other members of their family into Great Britain.
The direct challenge
This report also directly challenges the work done by Nick Clegg, who happens to be the leader of the Liberal Democrat, who has proposed amnesty for illegal residents who have been overstaying in UK for such a long time now, particularly more than ten years.
Another group, the MigrationWatch also did their own study of managing much stricter controls for immigration into the UK. However, a huge number of Government ministers have been raising a lot of questions regarding the research conducted by MigrationWatch. In fact, they even say that MigrationWatch is a biased organization. It is a good thing that David Coleman, a known professor at Oxford University, of the field of demography, backs up said group in saying that giving out estimates regarding the number of illegal immigrants is always very difficult. He strongly believes that the group’s study results have been based on highly plausible estimates.
What is MigrationWatch?
This is a group that actually serves as an independent think tank that is headed by the former Ambassador to Saudi Arabia, Sir Andrew Green. They say that the authentic refugees should be accommodated into UK since, today, only those who have been granted protection only comprise approximately three percent of the net foreign immigration.
Contribution to society
It is also highly recognizable that a lot of today’s immigrants have been valuably contributing to the society in terms of both diversity and skills. This is why a lot of the biggest companies in the UK are not opposed to immigration, as long as it is only moderate and properly managed, which happens to be neither, at present.
Obvious increase
The increase in the number of illegal immigrants is not something that needs a report for verification since the rise is extremely obvious. The only drawback is that even the Government admits that it is quite impossible to exactly know the figure on illegal immigration since these illegals have undergone great lengths just to conceal their mere existence from the British authorities. In fact, even if UK’s immigration minister is asked, he cannot directly answer exactly how many immigrants the UK presently has, as it is a question that no immigration minister can correctly answer.
Legal and illegal
Independent academic groups and the Government, itself, admit that all kinds of immigration, both legal and illegal, have largely mushroomed since then. Politician Clegg is interested in regularizing the illegal immigrants who have now stayed in the UK for the longest times, so that they can also aid in integrating the economy legally. This is what they call the Earned Route to Citizenship. Still, they are having present difficulties with this proposal since they cannot absolutely tell how many of the illegals will be able to qualify for such benefit.
