Three-quarters of Canadians think the work and talent of immigrants makes Canada better
The topic of immigration rarely reaches double digits when Canadians are asked about the most important issues facing the country.
When Research Co. and Glacier Media asked Canadians earlier this month, 45 per cent told us that immigration is having a “mostly positive” effect in Canada, while 38 per cent believe it is having a “mostly negative” effect and 17 per cent are undecided. This year’s survey outlines a significant shift from the way Canadians felt in February 2022, when positive perceptions of immigration were nine points higher and negative ones were 12 points lower .
One issue where the numbers are moving is our vision of the country. There is a virtual tie when we ask Canadians if they would prefer the “mosaic” model, where cultural differences are preserved , or the “melting pot”, where immigrants assimilate and blend into society . In July 2021, the “mosaic” had a 12-point lead over the “melting pot” .
