Introduction Foreign policies have merits and demerits in the society. When coming up with an immigration policy, it is important to weigh the benefits that immigrants will bring to a nation and the gains the immigrants will equally get in the foreign country. According to Demographic Reports of 2012 in relation to Canada, the country had a low immigrant population. This affected its economic progress in the recent past. Global economies largely depend on diverse labor force from different parts of the world (Wiginton, 2014). The Canadian Contemporary Policy of Immigration equally measures the significance of cross-region immigration. It means that people can immigrate into Canada from different countries, and Canadians can welcome regional immigrants. Domestic, regional, and international immigration have the ability to propel both economic and political growth in Canada. Since the Boston Tea Party among other activities in the US that geared towards ending the British colonialism, Canada separated its activities from the mainland. Its activities only aimed at restoring peace and improving the economy internally without much focus on the significance of external forces in improving economic growth. Canada has a high rate of underemployment because it attracts few immigrants to occupy the created job opportunities in the country. The essay seeks to address the contemporary immigration policy, and, in the process, presents its strengths and weaknesses. Strengths Economic Empowerment Canadian contemporary immigration policies aim at expanding markets, increasing immigration rates, and increasing resource acquisition across the regions. The US and Canada share close historical accounts even though US embraced immigration earlier as opposed to its counterpart. It helped the US to acquire requisite labor force to fill in the industrially developing country whose pace of economic growth was very fast. Before Canada developed the contemporary policy, its greatest scare was to open its boundaries to terrorists, human traffickers, and drug smugglers. Its experience with British colonizers made it very difficult to trust any foreigners. Equally, this had an impact on its international relations. Following such historical encounters, Canada needs immigration more than the US. Sometimes, countries have to acquire human resources from other countries in order to create a blend and unique work experience. Currently, Canada is in the process of a major political and economic transformation, meaning that it requires investors and needs to explore different parts of the world through its multinational organizations (Hampson, Hillmer, & Carment, 2004). Many people know Montreal and Ontario, but few would actually link the states with Canada. Multinationals provide jobs to many people across the world while publicizing countries to the rest of the world. Canada’s immigration policy aims at building trust with foreign countries in order to increase investment opportunities. Besides outsourcing and creating an enabling environment for the growth of MNCs, Canada’s new immigration policy aims at creating excellent political relations with the rest of the world in order to propel political growth.
