Young immigrants may leave Canada due to high cost of living: survey
A new poll suggests 30 per cent of new, young immigrants to Canada could leave the country in the next two years.
According to a national survey conducted by Leger for the Institute for Canadian Citizenship (ICC), 30 per cent of new Canadians aged 18-34, and 23 per cent of university-educated new Canadians, said they are likely to move to another country in the next two years.
While the Canadian adults and new Canadians surveyed both generally believed Canada provided a good quality of life for immigrants, researchers said Canadians were more likely to have a positive outlook on Canada’s prospects for immigrants than the immigrants themselves.
I don’t think it a secret that many immigrants view Canada as a waystation on their way to the US.
