Document Summary

Lecture 08 (first lecture after midterm: we"ll talk about the final exam on november 22nd ( exam is 29th , trudeau"s government has decided not to increase immigration levels significantly quickly (over next 4-5 years) The projection is if we in canada raised immigration levels and held it then 36 million today would turn to 90-100 million. One view is that it could help the economy however prof is not necessary this is true; except, baby boomers are beginning to retire so immigration could deal with that. If we are lacking people for a certain industry, then some people may say immigration can take place of this space, however others may say that why don"t we educate or find our own. Except, canada has never done well at creating a strategy which considers a numbers of factors (education, economic growth) The housing is outrageously expensive: liberals announced yesterday that 21 new senators have been hired.
