why has Asia become the #1 source of all immigrants to Canada?

Canada has been ranked as the best nation to live in from the point of political, cultural, intellectual, the arts, education, civil rights etc for many years running with Norway a close second.  And for political and economic reasons there are more emmigrants from Asia than anywhere else.

Canadians always treat immigrants with a "laissez faire" attitude because there are so many immigrants/different ethnic backgrounds in Canada, that they don't even really notice. Canadians are all immigrants themselves anyways. I'm Canadian, but a third generation Canadian, and most of my friends and my spouse are second generations, and one is a first generation. Occasionally you will meet a stupid canadian loser who was brought up the wrong way and who is rascist against immigrants but that is the same in any place you go. There will always be rascists. MOST canadians are very open and don't really notice any difference or don't care where people come from.

I read that too. It goes by land mass and we were the highest. And China has some what of a decline. Pretty scary.\nAnd I go to Canada to visit on the cost side-they say they do have problems. I guess it is where you live. But we are all losing in population growth. And this country does have a huge rise in growth and it is time to stop or I expect it will not be called God's Country any longer.

You should do whatever makes you happy.  With that said, I think Canada is the best country in the world.  I'm a proud Canadian.  Every country has its' issues, Canada included, but the pros definitely outweight the cons.  I've traveled to other countries, and I currently live in the States, but to me, there's no place like Canada.  Our society as a whole is more welcoming and open to other cultures, than many other societies.  We're a humble and modest people,  our quality of life is excellent, and really, you can't get Tim Horton's in the UAE. :)

There are several factors. Speaking as an American citizen who plans on immigrating to Canada, we have tough immigration/work policies because Canada does.

Importers, canadian travellers to foreign countries, people sending money to family in other parts of the world, etc- basically anybody who has any need to convert the cash to a foreign currency- they get more for every canadian dollar with the new rates

I'm not sure about the personal stories about new Canadians. I don't know if they are experiencing racism or what exact problems they are facing.  On the other hand I know a little bit of the numbers, and the composition of the people moving to Canada to create a new home.   \n\nCanada lets in about 0.75% of it population each year as immigrants.  This means that this years Canada will be accepting about 250 000 new people into the country.  Most of the new people coming to Canada are from China, India North and West Africa, Pakistan.   \n\nCanada's immigration policy has been changing over the years and is attempting to get higher skilled and younger workers to move to Canada.  It helps if the immigrant speaks French or English .  \n\nA big problem is the income levels of new immigrants into Canada.  A new immigrant that has similar education experience and language ability will on average make 22 to 25% less than a person born in Canada.  \n\nI hope this helps a bit.

- May not be...!\n- Because Canada has closer ties with America.\n- Its also fall in belt of Hardline Christian Causes which insult, paralyze, and destabilize the regions of Islamic countries and middle east.\n- So there is very little to hope so.\n----------------

yes of course\nI dont need to be canadian to answer this because as a Filipino, we have great knowledge about these issues of migration to Canada since most Canadian recruitment are here plus majority of foreign migrants to Canada are well skilled Filipinos\n\nYes you can migrate there together with your family\nCanada having an Ageing Population needs additional population which can support that need and demand\nCanada prioritize families more than individual persons because they believe people will strive more and work hard if they hold their whole family, therefore it will result in a productive community\nCanada values education and so even if you are not well educated, their government will require and at the same time support you to achieve academic needs\n\nI also know alot of Asians including Pakistans who lives there and having a good life\n\nI hope I have enlightened you

They didn't only immigrate to Canada.. They probably left because they thought they would have a better life.  Isn't that why most people immigrate?

CANADA!  The United Nations seems to agree. So too do all the prospective immigrants who can't wait to get into the country.  They even come illegally.  Yes we're a wonderfully even-tempered people who like to mind our own business, let others live as they believe appropriate and just try to "get along".  What more could you want in a place to live?  Our family has been here since 1780 - province of New York previous to that since 1623 - so we can claim loyalty to this grand Dominion.  G-d save the Queen!

That depends on what you are looking for.  If you are happy in Singapore, maybe you should stay there.  Where did you migrate there from?  Canada is a wonderful, beautiful country and I love it here, but I think you should research information on the internet about Canada to see if it would meet your expectations of what you want for your lives and that of your future children.  I do know that Canada wants immigrants and particularly those who are well educated in the professions and medicine, as well as all trades.  Also, Canada is a huge country and life is very different from one area to the next, so you would need to do research to decide what area of Canada you would be interested in, as well.  Check the Canadian immigration website to learn a lot and there are other websites to look at - the information is there for the taking.  Good luck!
