Why Canada?

Why Canada?

Attracting over 250,000 immigrants from all over the globe each year, Canada is ranked among the top 10 countries to live in. It is the world’s second-largest country by total area, with a population of approximately 35 million people. With a thriving economy and breathtaking scenic landscapes, Canadian citizenship offers people a very high standard of living. Why choose Canadian citizenship According to a survey by Canada’s Federation of Independent Business, as reported in the Reader’s Digest, 1 out of 20 jobs remains unfilled because of an inability to find suitably skilled workers. This represents over a quarter of a million vacant jobs in small and medium sized businesses alone. Nearly 7.5% of jobs went unfilled in the skilled construction market, as well as the business service and agricultural sectors.

Canada

Canada has an impressive trillion-dollar high-tech industry. The country is also rich with natural resources, including iron, diamonds and gold, plus its oil resources are the 3rd largest in the world.

According to the Association for Canadian Studies, the median household income for Canadian citizens is $68,560 per year. As reported in Money Sense, during the last ten years, the Toronto Stock Exchange has risen by 59%, compared with a 3% gain for the MSCI World Index and a 4% loss for the S&P 500.

The Canadian dollar has also appreciated 47% against the U.S. dollar and 16% against the euro over the past 10 years. Since the 1990s, Canada’s federal government has maintained a budget surplus that was barely touched by the global recession. Canada also has a low unemployment rate (7.0% as of January 2014), plus there has been an increase in full-time jobs with high-paying positions and a decrease in the part-time job market.
Health Care
All Canadian citizens qualify for Canada’s health care system. It is publicly funded and administered on a provincial or territorial basis, within guidelines set by the federal government. Health care coverage includes preventative care, medical treatments, as well as access to hospitals, dental surgery and additional medical services. Canadian citizens have one of the highest life expectancies (about 80 years) and lowest infant mortality rates relative to any other industrialized country. According to the Conference Board of Canada, the country ranks 2nd among 17 peer countries.
Education
Canada has been delivering a high-quality education to people between the ages of 5 and 25 with comparatively modest spending. Canada’s high school graduation rate is relatively high.  Canada has 2 official languages- English and French. However, with the high diversity of immigrants coming to the country, there are also many other languages spoken in Canada. Multiculturalism is, therefore, very well-engrained in the country, with widespread acceptance of people from all different races and religions.  Canadian citizenship has something to offer for everyone.
