The Canadian Immigration Information
Stage 1b: Gathering Information and Research Fact #1 (Write down one fact that you found that helps you to argue your specific political issue and helps to support your Party’s position on the political spectrum) Canada allows around 250,000+ immigrants into Canada each year. Comment on the above fact (make reference to your Party’s goals/political spectrum beliefs): That is a large number of immigrants entering Canada each year. Allowing so many immigrants into Canada each year is not fair to Canadians already living in Canada. These immigrants are competing for jobs with Canadians.
This can also increase the unemployment rate and many could lose their jobs. Immigrants have benefits to the economy too, but not when 250,000 + are entering each year. From those, 150,000 are skilled workers that can benefit Canada. The number of total immigrants must be brought down to around 130,000 – 150,000 a year. That way we give a chance for some skilled workers, refugees and others to enter Canada while saving jobs for Canadians. Of those 130,000 – 150,000 we will make sure that at least 80% (104,000 – 120,000) of these immigrants should skilled and educated workers that can benefit the Canadian economy and society.
Others should be people who are desperately in need of a Canadian Citizenship or Permanent Residence cards. Therefore making sure people in the country are served in the highest quality while still giving foreigners a chance to experience life in Canada.

Fact #2 (Write down another fact that you found that helps you to argue your specific political issue and helps to support your Party’s position on the political spectrum) 0,000 students come to study in Canada every year on a temporary residence visa or a study permit. These students must be able to prove that they can pay for their tuition, have a clean criminal record, be in good health, and leave the country once they are finished. Comment on the above fact (make reference to your Party’s goals/political spectrum beliefs): Everybody has a right to learn whether or not it is in Canada or not. As left winger we want to provide an equal chance for everyone to earn an education in Canada. We will encourage students from all around the world to come study in Canada.
We would minimize the restrictions for students to come and study in Canada. For example, whether or not a person is sick should not hold their ability to be able to study in Canada. Foreign students bring a rich culture to our classrooms and their knowledge and skills should be welcome in our schools. Fact #2 Source: “Studying in Canada. ” Studying in Canada. N. p. , n. d. Web. 07 June 2012. . Fact #3 (Write down another fact that you found that helps you to argue your specific political issue and helps to support your Party’s position on the political spectrum)
In Canada 27,852 refugees enter Canada out of the 250,000 that immigrate to Canada each year. Comment on the above fact (make reference to your Party’s goals/political spectrum beliefs): “Canada offers refugee protection to people in Canada who fear persecution or whose removal from Canada would subject them to a danger of torture, a risk to their life or a risk of cruel and unusual treatment or punishment. ” If the number of immigrant into Canada decreases to 130,000 – 150,000 each year than at least 15% of these immigrants must be refugees.
Refugees need help and are in desperate need of a place to stay. Letting around 18,000 – 20,000 refugees into Canada is a good amount and can save many people’s lives. These people have a right to experience freedom and peace in Canada. Therefore, refugees should be a big part of immigrants that enter Canada next to skilled workers. Fact #3
