Immigration to Canada

Image
Movement of people from their home countries to settle elsewhere is an essential part of Canada's history. In this country, immigration has never been a factor of orderly population growth. She has served and continues to serve as a catalyst for economic progress, as well as reflecting Canadian attitudes and values. It has also been subjected, without any qualms, to the country's own economic interests and often to outrageously discriminatory policies on ethnic and racial grounds. Loyalist immigration The new British rulers, who would have liked the colony to remain a quiet appendage to the Empire, soon found themselves obliged to accept several thousand English-speaking settlers, most of whom were Protestants, following the American War of Independence. Known as the Loyalists of the United Empire, they are largely political refugees . They are heading north not by choice, but by obligation, either that they do not wish to become citizens of the new American republic, ...

Dutch Immigrants arrive in Quebec

Unlike the massive immigration of the previous era, that of the post-war era is not only to favor the sectors of agriculture or mining and forestry , concentrated in rural areas. Canada emerged from the Second World War as an urban and industrial power, and many immigrants soon became employed in the fields of processing and construction. Some contribute to the construction of urban infrastructure while others, more educated, move to the professional and skilled labor sectors. Other notable changes are also taking place in the post-war years of immigration. Little by little, the federal and provincial governments finally succumb to the pressures of a new generation of immigrants and their children. Increasingly active on the political scene, these immigrants who are now part of the middle class, have made common cause with Canadians in the war effort and refuse to be considered as second-class citizens in a country that they helped defend.  Supported by Canadians, they d...

Vietnamese Refugees in Canada

Image
During the 1960s and 1970s, Canada was sensitive to the desperate plight of refugees from other countries with a dictatorial system. It accepts refugees from Hungary, following the failed uprising of 1956, and Czechoslovakia , where the Soviet Union crushed the political reform movement in 1968. to relax the normal immigration procedure to accommodate its share of refugees. In subsequent years, Canada is also abandoning its usual criteria for admitting political refugees from Uganda, Chile and other countries. In all these cases, refugees are admitted according to exceptional measures. In 1978, Canada promulgated a new Immigration Act which, for the first time, affirmed its commitment to help refugees who had fled oppression, that is, people who had legitimate reasons to believe that they risk being persecuted if they stay in their country. As a result, refugees are no longer admitted to Canada on an exceptional basis. Their admission is governed by the Immigration Act and Regulat...

Migrants and Urban Centers in Canada

Despite government action , not all immigrants work in agriculture or resource development. As the Irish did before them, many "foreign" immigrants, who do not speak English and are not, for the most part, Protestant, choose to work in the cities rather than live in isolated rural areas. In addition, many of them intend to stay in Canada or North America only temporarily, until they have earned enough money to buy land in their home country, put together a dowry for a sister or repay a family debt. However, those who adopt the North American definition of success or who can not return to their country because of the political climate, settle in Canada and persuade women and children to join them. If these immigrants (Jews, Italians, Macedonians , Russians, Finns, Chinese , etc.) were satisfied with the role they had been left with regret, if they had accepted the isolation of a life in the countryside as the price of their entry into Canada, hostility to them would proba...
