More recent immigrants are leaving Canada for greener pastures, a new study says.
The findings suggest the phenomenon is especially prevalent between four and seven years after newcomers have received their permanent residence.
Although the number and ratio of people leaving each year varied, over the course of 25 years, accumulatively about 20 per cent of immigrants in each cohort ultimately left Canada, said the report, “The Leaky Bucket: A Study of Immigrant Retention Trends in Canada.”
Which may say something about the “quality” of immigrant who is forced to stay.
