Why did Canada let Europe immigrate in the first place?

The population is insufficient and the demand for labor is great.

1, the population growth is slow and the aging is serious. According to the data of Canadian census, during the five years from 20 1 1 to 20 15, the cumulative population growth rate in Canada is only 5%, and the average annual population growth rate is less than 1% based on the growth rate in the same period.

2. Rapid economic development leads to labor shortage. At present, Canada's economy is growing rapidly, and GDP growth will reach 3% this year. With the rapid economic growth and labor shortage, the Canadian government has adopted the policy of attracting10 million immigrants every year, with the aim of "ensuring its population and realizing economic prosperity".

3. Immigrants supplement the labor force. In addition to the reasons mentioned above, the main reason for immigration in Canada is actually that the land is vast and the population is sparse, so immigration has long been Canada's national policy.
