Multiculturalism in Canada
Pluralism is a situation where two or more states, societies, groups or sources of authority
develop and maintain peaceful co-existence in their different interests and lifestyles to ensure
civilization at the same time. In Canada, immigrants and refugees have taken over the industry of
providing labor. These immigrants are well and highly trained but they face a lot of challenges
when they move to Canada. Canadians have also come up with myths that are against settling of
immigrants in their State. As an advocate for human rights, am going to focus on the factors that
can dismiss and calm down these harmful myths against immigrants and refugees as they hinder
development and interactions between the immigrants and the birth citizens of Canada.
One of the most popular myths against immigrants and refugees is that these foreigners
are not as qualified as the Canadian professionals when it comes to different fields of expertise.
In order to eliminate such a myth, all immigrants and refugees who wish to practice their
professions in Canada should be assessed by bodies that are credited by the Government of
Canada to verify the validity of professions (Gogia& Slade, 2011). If they are found qualified,
they should be allowed to work only in fields of specialization.
Another myth that is common in Canada against the foreigners is that they are a burden to
the economy of Canada. As most foreigners migrate for purpose of business, such a myth should
be calmed by categorizing the foreigners. If any immigrant is moving to Canada for business,
they should prove by having a net worth of $ 300, 000. This will ensure they don’t become a
burden while in Canada.
Canadians consider immigrants as the promoters of crimes in their state. This myth can
be banished if the citizens of Canada allow Justice Bodies conduct background checks on those
who are moving to Canada before they conclude that it is immigrants who cause crimes. This
