Canada And Spain In 2040
By: Sukhpal Sidhu
Introduction
Canadian and Spain Demography (2015-2040)
Canada's population is growing at a slow rate and will be expected to increase in the future mainly because of immigration. Canada has a higher birth rate per year than death rate per year.
Canadian Immigration (2015-2040)
Canada Now (2015)
Around 250,000 immigrates come to Canada each year.The top 3 countries immigrating to Canada are China, India, and Philippines. The 3 different immigrates that come to Canada are refugees, economic immigrates, and family class immigrates.
Ways to immigrate to Canada are through the point system, or being sponsored and being a refugee invited to Canada.
Canada In 2040
Canada's population will remain to grow stably due to immigration from other countries.Immigrating to Canada will be assessed the same way it used to.
The point system will remain the same, and they will assess you by age, education, employment, experience, and language skills.Immigration to Canada will be close to 500,000 or more per year.The median age of immigrants will increase. It might increase a little because Canada wants younger people instead of older people, but the health care system has improved and that made the median age of Canada rise .They want younger people so they can contribute to the economy because if you are close to the retiring age you can't contribute as much to the economy as younger people can and Canada will probably not accept you into Canada as an economic immigrant cause you are to old.

CANADA COMPARED TO SPAIN IN 2040
Push Factors: Bad economy, less job opportunities
Pull Factors: Good climate,Low crime rate,Health care, and cheaper cost of living
Fertility rate: The fertility rate is going to stay the same or decrease a bit, mainly because women rather have their education and a job, instead of having kids or just not ready to have kids (family planing) or don't want kids at all. So, instead of having kids, women use birth control and protection to prevent having kids.
Median age: The median age of Spain in going to increase in 2040 compared to Spain in 2015 because their are a high number of people in 2015 moving to the retiring age in 2040. And health care is going to improve increasing the life expectancy; which increases the median age.
Canada in 2040
Push Factors: Climate (cold) and Tax (high)
Pull Factors: Better Education, Freedom, Job Opportunities, Better Economy, free health care and more.
Fertility rate: I think Canada's fertility rate is going to decrease even though their is a lot of immigration to Canada because women chose education and job opportunities rather than having children. Some women are not ready to have kids or they don't want kids. So women use birth control and protection.
Median Age: The median age of Canada is going to increase because their are a high number of people in 2015 moving to the retiring age in 2040. And health care is going to improve increasing the life expectancy; which increases the median age.
