Just one short visit and many people feel pulled to live in Canada permanently.\n\nLet\u2019s explore why people immigrate to Canada\u2013but first, let\u2019s look at why this is such a great thing for Canada as a nation.\n<h2>Why is immigration important to Canada<\/h2>\nThe Canadian government has created a campaign to encourage immigration and to help Canadian citizens better understand why welcoming immigrants is important. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.canada.ca\/en\/immigration-refugees-citizenship\/campaigns\/immigration-matters\/growing-canada-future.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Immigration Matters<\/a> campaign explains that \u201cImmigrants help grow Canada\u2019s future,\u201d and then details the contributions of immigrants in the areas of:\n<ul>\n \t<li>Business<\/li>\n \t<li>Healthcare<\/li>\n \t<li>Sports<\/li>\n \t<li>Science and Technology<\/li>\n \t<li>Arts and Culture<\/li>\n \t<li>Food Service<\/li>\n \t<li>Philanthropy<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nAnd, as we discuss <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cicvisa.com\/en\/because-of-immigration-canada-is-the-fastest-expanding-country-in-the-g7\/\">on our website<\/a>, \u201cCanada today has a population of about 37 million people. Canada\u2019s population expansion was fueled by immigration rather than fertility. Four out of every five of the 1.8 million people that joined the population were either temporary residents or permanent immigrants.\u201d\n<h2>Why do people want to immigrate to Canada<\/h2>\nHistorically, people have come to Canada for a variety of reasons. For example, the Chinese immigrated to Canada for work and to get away from challenging cultural conditions in China. As <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cicnews.com\/2014\/03\/story-chinese-immigration-canada-033259.html#gs.epqs6i\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CIC news<\/a> tells us, \u201cAs perhaps Canada\u2019s oldest non-European immigrant community, the Chinese have faced a bumpy road to full integration in Canadian culture. Today, they are the country\u2019s largest non-Caucasian ethnic group, numbering over 1,300,000 residents.\u201d\n\nThe Gold Rush brought immigrants from the United States and elsewhere. Russian refugees come to Canada to escape religious persecution. <a href=\"https:\/\/openeducationalberta.ca\/settlement\/chapter\/canadas-immigration-history-milestones-and-stories\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u66fc\u5c3c\u6258\u5df4\u7701<\/a> has the largest concentration of Icelanders outside Iceland\u2019s capital city, Reykjavik.\n\nWhile people immigrate to Canada for a huge variety of reasons, a handful include:\n<ul>\n \t<li>World-class education<\/li>\n \t<li>Good working conditions<\/li>\n \t<li>High-quality healthcare<\/li>\n \t<li>Freedom of religion<\/li>\n \t<li>Freedom of culture<\/li>\n \t<li>Few restrictions on where an immigrant can live or work<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nInternational students find great opportunities to study and live, regardless of their country of origin. Canadian society, on the whole, is accepting and supportive of diversity and pluralism.\n\nAdditionally, Canada has a streamlined immigration process that, with a<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cicvisa.com\/en\/canadian-immigration-assessment-form\/\"> little help<\/a>, can be navigated from any country in the world.\n\nWhether you are looking for access to Canada\u2019s Temporary Foreign Worker program or looking to pursue permanent residency through Canadian immigration, Altec Global can help.
