What are the benefits of immigrating to Canada? Is Canada suitable for living?

Chen Yiyuan, a former violinist of the Hong Kong Symphony Orchestra, said that her daughter immigrated to Vancouver shortly after 1982 was born. He said that the first reason for emigration was education, and he wanted to give his daughter a stress-free and more comfortable educational environment.

Although "no pressure", Canada's academic performance is not bad. According to the reading, mathematics and science test conducted by students aged 0/5 in OECD countries in 2009, Canada ranked sixth among 65 countries, surpassing New Zealand and second only to Singapore. Students of the same age in the United States ranked 17 in the test. In addition, 48.3% of Canadian nationals have received college education, while only 40.3% in the United States.

2. Diversity of immigrants

Zhang Xiaomin, an actress who lives in Dawen, won the Hundred Flowers Award in China. She has been to many countries. She believes that racial discrimination is a problem in every country to some extent, especially in the United States, where racial discrimination is always on the face, while in Canada, there are relatively few problems. She loves peace more and is more attractive to immigrants.

Zhang Xuhui, who used to be the chief engineer of fire control and hydropower in Taibei 10 1 Building, compared the United States to soup on the dining table and Canada to salad. Thick soup melts everything together and tastes tasteless, while salad makes every vegetable and fruit visible and retains its original flavor. This is why Canada's multiculturalism makes him feel out of place.

For every thousand people in Canada, 5.65 are immigrants, and only 3.64 in the United States.

3. Immigrants are richer

There are many immigrants in Canada, and there are also many rich immigrants. According to the research report of the Bank of Montreal (BMO), nearly half of the millionaires in Canada are immigrants or second-generation immigrants, while in the United States, only one third are. In addition, the net worth of Canadian families is 363,000, which is more than 40,000 yuan than the average American family.

4. Have a world vision

Last year, Canadians went abroad (excluding going to the United States) nearly 10,000 times, and the population of the United States was10 times that of Canada, but only 30 million times; 65% of Canadians have passports, but only 35% of Americans have passports. Obviously, Canadians have a more global perspective than Americans.

Rao Jiajun, a local tourist, said that Canada loves peace and rarely offends other countries, so it is safer to travel abroad with a Canadian passport.

5. Inclusion and peace

Canada not only has less racial discrimination, but also has a higher acceptance of homosexuality than Americans. 80% of Canadians can accept homosexuality, while only 60% of Americans can accept homosexuality. In addition, Canada ranked eighth among the world's peaceful countries this year, and the United States ranked 99th.

6. Good public order

Canada is also much safer than the United States. Since 1982 in the United States, there have been at least 45 shootings in which more than six people were killed, while in these 30 years, there have been only two in Canada; In Canada, only 65,438+0.73 per 654.38+million people were murdered, but in the United States, 4.7 per 654.38+million people were murdered. There are 86 robberies per 6,543,800 people in Canada and 654.38+ 065.438+04 in the United States.

Compared with the United States, the prison population in Canada is not out of control. Last year, there were 38,700 prisoners in Canada, with an average of 1 14 people. However, in the United States, * * * there are 2.24 million people in prison, with an average of 76/kloc-0 per 65,438+10,000 people imprisoned, which is the highest proportion in the world. Canada is good in this respect, ranking 132.

7. This road is safer

Canada's roads are basically safe, with 8.8 people dying in car accidents for every 65,438+10,000 people. Although the expressway system in the United States is developed, the number of people who die from traffic accidents is as high as 13.9 per 65438+ 10,000 people.

8. High medical level

The infant mortality rate in Canada is only 5. 1 per thousand infants, while the neonatal mortality rate in the United States is 6. 1 per thousand newborns.

9. A happy marriage.

Canada attaches great importance to family, and marriage is the foundation of family. In Canada, an average of 2. 1 couples divorce each year, while in the United States, it is 3.6 couples.

10. Good living environment

There is not much environmental pollution in Canada, especially the air, which no amount of money can buy. The quiet and silent living environment also makes him feel very comfortable. Zhang Xuhui, who immigrated to Canada for seven years, pointed out that Canada is full of parks and green spaces, and there are bicycle lanes on the roads, which are rare in Asian countries.

According to the OECD report, Canada's air quality is really second to none in the world, and the content of special substances is 16 micrograms per cubic meter, while the United States is18; The life comfort of Canadians is 8.8 (full score 10), and that of the United States is 7.5. Among developed countries, Canadians rank third in happiness index, second only to Sweden and Australia.

1 1. Good civic morality.

Honesty is the foundation of education, and trust between people is his proudest virtue as a Canadian. He said that he once bought goods at Costco, but later found them inappropriate. He wants to take them back and return them. He only told the counter staff the reason, and the counter staff accepted the full refund of the goods without even checking it.

A good Canadian character is not only trusting, but also saying "I'm sorry". In fact, Canada is often ridiculed as having nothing to apologize for, but apologizing for everything is not a lack of personality. According to researchers from Anhe University of Waterloo, if you are stopped by the police for speeding, saying "I'm sorry" can reduce the average fine by 5 1 yuan.

12. Be enthusiastic about doing good deeds

64% of Canadians will donate money to charity, while in the United States, the proportion is 60%.

Tung Chan, a former CEO of overseas Chinese and now a director of the Vancouver Foundation, said that Canadians are very keen on donating money. In fact, for many immigrants, donating money to charities such as BC Children's Hospital and BC Cancer Foundation is also a way to integrate into the local society.

Canada has a large immigrant population and is quite generous in charitable donations.

13. The legal system is fair enough

The Film and Television College founded by Zhang Xiaomin was reviled and vilified by another film and television company on the Internet. After the incident, she did not fight back, but hired a lawyer and directly resorted to the law. She said that she believed that Canada's judicial system, even before judges, would give her justice. Finally, after back-and-forth communication between lawyers of both parties, the other party finally bowed his head and pleaded guilty and apologized, and the incident ended successfully.

Judges in Canada are appointed, and they are always cautious when making every decision. If they are elected as judges, they will consider the intentions of donors and supporters (groups) when making judgments, which will affect judicial justice.

14. Longevity and love of sports

Canada is a country with a long life. The average life expectancy of Canadians is 8 1. 1 year, which is nearly 3 years longer than the 78.2 years in the United States. According to the statistics of the Canadian Tourism Board, 30% of Canadians will consider taking part in outdoor adventure activities, while only 26% of Americans will.

15. Excellent national image

Li Bajia, a former Vancouver City Councillor, said that Canada is not a troublemaker in the world and the pace of life is slow. Although there is competition in the workplace, it has not reached the point of life and death. Therefore, its national image is mild and it is a good brand in the world.

According to the report published by the Danish-based Reputation Institute, Canada ranked first and the United States ranked 23rd in the list of countries with the best reputation in 20 12.
