A recent poll by Nanos Research for Policy Options says that 72.6 per cent of Canadians realize the importance of immigration to the future of the country. When asked what Canadian immigration policy for the selection of immigrants should focus on, 84.9 per cent of Canadians responded that it is important to select immigrants whose skills match the needs of Canada’s labour-tight work force. 81.1 per cent responded that family reunification was equally important.
"Canada sees immigration policy as a nation-building exercise from the point of view of our economy and of the family," stated Nik Nanos, president of Nanos Research. "Canadians were on board as far as making sure when someone does come to Canada, that they’ve got the skills Canada needs to be stronger."
