Contribution to Population Growth by Immigration and
Natural Causes: Canada
SOURCE: COPS, 1992. Cited by the Canadian Labour Force Development
Board.
Immigration has historically played a significant role in Canada's
population growth. Current trends show that by 1996, half the population
growth in Canada will come from immigration. By the end of the decade,
immigration is expected to contribute to a majority share of population
growth.
How might immigration trends
affect laws regarding foreign
credentials or employment
experience?
