the simple truth is that 95% of these people are not able to immigrate, they aren’t wealthy, they aren’t skilled. No country would take them.
Immigration is a tedious process, Its a pipe dream for many. For a time I thought I would Immigrate to the UK when I was dating someone there, years later I realized I didnt have a chance in hell unless we were married. that was the only path that was available to me.
As a Millennial whose teen years were filled with adults pushing me to gO To cOLleGe constantly, I’m pretty pissed. I could make and fill a Bingo card of bullshit reasons people repeated ad nauseum, yet in retrospect there is one critical reason that nobody mentioned - that if you want to emigrate, other countries only want you if you’re “educated.” (Or “skilled.”)
I can’t imagine most adults I knew were even aware of the requirements for becoming a citizen in another country. I had dreams of moving to Canada at that age, so if somebody had known, it would’ve been a very convincing argument on me. For those that don’t know - the system is set up to prevent most people from going anywhere, but having a specialized degree makes you desirable internationally. It’s one of the few ways that ordinary (read: non-wealthy) people have that allows them to move to a new country.
Im curious what the immigration system was like 30-40 years ago with the commonwealth countries, you wouldnt believe the amount of people here in canada that came from the UK, NZ and Australia who seem to have been here for 30+ years. I would imagine whatever system people moved around in the commonwealth back then is good and now.
also canadian immigration is a joke, you could buy your way in for 10, 20 grand at a shitpot immigration consultant and then take a low skill job, if it was ever about having desireable skills, it stopped being that way about 10-15 years ago…
There’s an immigration process, go ahead and apply if you want.
