QUEBEC IMMIGRATION PROGRAM FAILING GRADE

This article appeared in FORBES magazine, based on a study by Oxford Analytica confirms what we have known for some time: despite Quebec's attraction of immigrants using very favourable ( and highly questionable) terms granted by the federal government to the province which insists in manging its own immigration program, Quebec has been unable to retain them, in effect transforming Quebec into a huge destination of convenience and portal to the rest of Canada. Quebec's policies discourage qualified immigrants and penalize success with its higher tax rates, resulting in an immigration flow that, while mostly French-speaking, is hardly what the province needs for economic growth.
