> Which is not really much different in Canada either. Where else than Canada can you find the highest number of taxi/Uber drivers with a law/medical degree? Cuba? In all seriousness, it's by design. It's one of the side effects of using a point-based immigration system... that never checks for employability! The Canadian system will just blindly grant points to someone if they possess a university degree, no matter how employable it makes them. Then it fills the yearly quota with the highest scorers. Contrast this to the United-States where an employer has to demonstrate it cannot find a qualified American worker at market rates AND that the immigrant it wished to sponsor is qualified to perform the job. Let's be honest here for a minute and acknowledge not all foreign degrees are created equal. Academic dishonesty and corruption make certain countries and colleges known diploma mills. That's, sadly, not something Germany can fix.
