Canadian Immigrating in 2040
Demography
Natural Increase Rate of Canada 2014
- # of Births in a year/ Total population *1000 =
335 241/ 35 429 182 * 1000 = 9.46 births per 1000 people in Canada 2014.
- # of Deaths in a year/ Total population *1000 =
260 243 / 35 429 182 * 1000 = 7.34 Deaths per 1000 people in Canada 2014
Birth Rate- Death Rate= Natural Increase
9.46 - 7.34 = 2.12 ... Therefore, Canada's Natural Increase Rate is 2 per 1000 people or 0.2%
Canada is at stage 4 on the demographic transition model.
Net Migration
Canadian Demography 2014

Canada's demographic shift (VIDEO)
This video talks about....
The number of seniors is growing rapidly especially cause we are in the middle of a mini baby boom. Retirees are living longer, the age group 60- 64 is experiencing the fastest increase, this is not good for the working population because we need more experienced workers.After Watching this Video...
I feel that Canada will be accepting a lot more economic immigrants. The more workers the easier it will get to pay the pension for retired people. Canada will be looking for skilled and business class immigrants which can help pay taxes so that retired people get their pension/retirement plan money.
Brazil
Demography 2014 vs 2040
Death Rate: 1,206,360 / 204,505,396 x 1000 = 5.89 per 1000 people in Canada
Natural Increase: 16.50 - 5.89 = 10.61 is Canada's Natural Increase Rate (1.06%)
Net Migration: - 13, 278 The emigration Rate is higher than immigration
In 2040 the Birth Rate will decrease a lot, however the life expectancy will increase. Looking at the population pyramids of 2015 and 2040 it is seen that people will be living longer but the there will be less children than now. Despite these changes the population will continue to grow and will grow by about 25 million people.
Immigration 2014 vs 2040
- WORK IN BRAZIL: If you are on long- term contracts with Brazil. People in this category must have special approval from the ministry of labor and employment in Brazil.
- RETIREMENT IN BRAZIL: People can get permanent residence in Brazil for retirement but they have to provide evidence of the funds needed for their stay.
- FAMILY OR BRAZILIAN CITIZEN: It is possible to qualify for immigration if your spouse or other family members are citizens or have permanent residency in Brazil.
In future Brazil will look for more immigrants who can help improve their economy. Brazil's immigration will not change as much in 2040 as their policy is fair and there are many chances to get permanent visa/residency in Brazil.
