In addition, while Canada is the second destination of the new immigrants, 95 percent of the citizens who obtained the Canadian citizenship are unskilled workers.

The economy provides an important “stepping stone” for encouraging migration to Canada, which can only be hennaed by allowing the immigrant’s family members to join him or her at a later time if they choose to do so. This would modify Regulation 117 to allow posthumous applications of family members to join their relatives in Canada as a form of economic incentive for greater social and psychological stability of the immigrant worker. This aspect of the transnational family would slowly become obsolete, especially in the context of improving Canada’s overall labor markets and productivity. In addition to family unity as a human rights, the Canadian government can utilize a more objective view of the immigrant labor markets as a vehicle to reunify immigrant families in the country.
