In Canada, is
immigration policy too liberal?
Canadian Originally
Answered: In Canada, is immigration policy too liberal? ?
It is a myth that
Canada has a very liberal immigration policy.
I grew up in Canada. I
went to high school in Canada. I got a four-year degree in Canada. I’m a highly
skilled employee. I looked at the Canadian immigration points system and
concluded that if I were in the same position, except that I wasn’t a Canadian
citizen, then I wouldn’t be able to qualify to immigrate to Canada. I wouldn’t
have enough points!
A “liberal”
immigration policy would be one that says anyone can come as long as they will
follow all the laws, will have a job instead of being a burden on society, and
will fill out all the required paperwork. EU countries have a “liberal”
immigration policy with respect to other EU countries. Canada’s immigration
policy is nothing close to that.
Canada’s immigration
policy is very technocratic. The government constantly adjusts the criteria and
weights based on data in order to try to identify the prospective immigrants
that will have the highest chance of being successful in Canada. It monitors
the impact of immigration on the Canadian economy and adjusts policy to make
sure the economy continues to grow as much as possible without increasing
unemployment for Canadians.
Canada’s family-based
immigration policies are decidedly less liberal than those of the US.
In the US, there is no
quota on how many parents of US citizens can immigrate. In Canada, there is a
quota so the waiting time can be multiple years, and some parents will be
denied immigration because the government thinks they’ll use too much health
care.
In the US, there is
approximately a 6 year waiting time for citizens to sponsor their unmarried
children over 21 for immigration, and a 11 year waiting time for citizens to
sponsor their married children over 21 for immigration. In Canada, it’s not
possible to do so.
In the US, there is
approximately a 13 year waiting time for citizens to sponsor their siblings for
immigration. In Canada, it’s not possible to do so.
Australia, which has a
similar immigration rate to Canada and a similar philosophy toward immigration,
is even more technocratic. The Australian government maintains a list of
skilled occupations for which there is demand for qualified workers in
Australia and gives priority to people with at least one of those skills. If
demand for a certain skilled occupation goes down, the government may remove
that occupation from the list.
