Canada is known for being very accepting of middle class and educated or skilled immigrants. Poor immigrants (which is what the original comment was specifying) not so much, and Canada's border enforcement is more effective than that of the US.
- Mikeb85 7y agoSounds like a failure of the US immigration system if new immigrants are unable to get decent jobs, even while the US accepts half as many immigrants per capita. Also interesting is the current political discourse in the US, where prominent voices in the media want to take in more currently rejected and undocumented migrants while the US is losing ground to other developed countries for income deciles 1-6.
