Allergies, Disease
Climate
Lack of health care
High cost of living
Pollution, loudness of City, traffic
Racism
Terrorism
Lack of employment
Abuse
Forced migration
(many black African were captured and transported to the
Americas)
eg. Good jobs
Money-looking for wealth-gold rush
To start a new life
Better living conditions for raising a family
Better educational opportunities
To obtain free or cheap land(in the past)
Adventure, change, challenge, excitement
For a quieter location, away from traffic, trains
Attractions- proximity to recreation and entertainment
Better climate
Lower cost of living
Health Care- ideal conditions for health care, allergies,
arthritis
Safety
To be closer to family
Transportation Movements
Transportation has made it much easier for people to relocate. (Globalization)
Bikes-for short range, Cars-short and long range-they caused roads to be built
Large Transport Trucks-transport a lot of stuff, Trains-move people and large loads long distances
Ships-move large quantities, long distances at low cost (Ships are the cheapest way to move cars, wheat and iron)
Planes-move people, mail and cargo
Barriers-things that make it difficult to move eg. Family ties, Finances
Physical Barriers-distance, oceans, mountains, deserts
Political Barriers-laws prohibiting, some countries make citizens pay an exit tax if they want to leave the country
Legal Barriers-limits the number of people the new country will let in
Economic Barriers-finances, travel costs
Personal Barriers- family ties
Procedural Barriers-getting passports, visas
Cultural/Language Barriers-not being able to speak the language in the new country
Forced Migration-With sea levels rising, many people will be forced to move to higher grounds
Three billion people are expected to live in countries without enough water by 2025, they will need to move
Illegal Migration-When people are desperate, they may resort to illegal action. Families forced out of one region and not
allowed into others often have no choice but to try and sneak into another country. Thousands of “illegals” pay people
thousands of dollars to be taken into other countries.
Culture-a way of life share by a group of people and is composed of a number of things, the way the people obtain their
food, bring up their kids, and the values they believe in

Movement- people travelling, goods are shipped from factories to stores, information passes from person
to person.
Migration-people, animals or things moving to a new area
Over the last 250 years the most common movement of people has been from the country(rural) to the
city(urban), since the Industrial Revolution. Fewer jobs were available on farms, so people left for the
towns and the cities to get work in the new factories that were opening. There are many reasons people
move.
eg. Poor living conditions
Our ancestors moved to find food, shelter, fresh water and security.
Globalization has caused an increased amount of business executives moving around the world as part of
their career training.
Push Factors-forces which encourage you to leave a
place
Pull Factors-forces which draw you to another

Trains-move people and large loads long distances
Ships-move large quantities, long distances at low cost
Ships are the cheapest way to move cars, wheat and iron
Planes-move people, mail and cargo
Pipelines
Many of us are unaware of how much we rely on pipelines. Every time you get water from a drinking
fountain or flush a toilet, you use a pipeline. We use pipelines to move water, wastes, oil, gas, chemical
and coal. Foods such as grains (mixed with a liquid) can be pumped through pipelines. Pipelines move
materials continuously with little labour.
In Canada, our larges pipeline is the Interprovincial from Alberta to Ontario. It moves the crude at
speeds averaging nearly 16 kilometres per hour.
In cities, there are networks of water, storm sewers and sanitary sewers running under our cities.
Needs Drive Movement
We don’t grow all our own food or produce the electricity that runs our lights and appliances. These
products are shipped to us.
The high quality wood used to make a clarinet grows in Central America. The wood is taken to Los
Angeles to be cut, and then moved to Indiana where the clarinet is made. Finally, the clarinets are
shipped to stores all around North America.
Trading
Trading happens because resources are not equally distributed around the world.
eg. Jamaica-has a lot of aluminum
Canada-has a lot of electricity
They trade with each other.
A tomato’s journey to the tomato sauce on your pizza (or to a fast food outlet) from a source outside
Ontario in winter. This journey has hidden costs, to people and to the environment along the way. three.
Mexico to Ontario:
Hidden Costs-pollution from truck, depletion of soil, plastic/cardboard containers, exploitation of
workers(women and children), wear and tear on the highways
Electronic Movement
The Internet has made it possible for things to happen instantly.

How Culture is Affected by Migration-Chapter 13
Human Characteristic: religion, language, culture
Culture-a way of life shared by a group of people and is composed of a number of things, the way
the people obtain their food, bring up their kids, and the values they believe in
When cultures were thrown together suddenly, many cultures were altered or destroyed.
Cultural Isolation
Japan, Korea, China and Mongolia were not influenced by outsiders until recently because they had
policies designed to keep foreigners out.
Cultures may change:
-if their living conditions change(change in climate)
-they get new ideas from another culture
-if a group try to take the rights away from another group
-young people change to fit in with more modern culture
Immigration Helps
-Give Canada a good reputation-this is positive when we travel to other countries
-Our economy-new immigrants need to buy all sorts of products to furnish their new home-factories
have to create more of their products and that creates more work
-Add to our Culture-Immigrants bring wealth, new foods, music, literature, dance, and ideas with
them

How Migration Affects Canada-Chapter 14
Many immigrants choose Canada because of:
-Job opportunities
-Environmental factors
-Political stability
-Democratic Elections
Canada has a Multicultural Policy that supports people of different races, religions, and ethnic
groups that settle in Canada. This policy protects everyone from racial prejudice and hate
