Canada opens doors to more than 2 million immigrants

Canada said it would welcome more than a million immigrants over the next three years in an effort to stimulate economic growth and innovation.
Canada will raise the proportion of immigrants during each of the next three years, where it will receive 310 thousand migrants in 2018, and 330 thousand immigrants in 2019, and to welcome the 2020 by 340 thousand immigrants.

"Immigrants will contribute through their qualifications to support the economy and innovation, and will help preserve our country's top positions in the global economy," said Canadian Immigration Minister Ahmed Hussein.
