Description
Guest: Nicholas Keung, immigration reporter While Canada is in the process of welcoming nearly 1.5 million permanent residents by the end of 2025, Statistics Canada data raises the question whether the country is doing an equally good job of keeping them here. A conservative estimate of 15 to 20 per cent of immigrants leave the country within 10 years. As many new Canadians struggle with systemic barriers, finding the right jobs and the increasingly-high cost of living, how many will make the difficult decision to give up on their Canadian dream and leave for greener pastures? How do we retain them in a country striving to grow its population and economy? This episode was produced by Saba Eitizaz and Paulo Marques.
