4. We are particularly concerned over the crin'flnai element amongst recent immigrants 7 this resu 11113 in cost to our country and a bad example to OUT you} - In this respect we would recommend stricter screening. immi rants. 0f aSIi Healtgh and educational requirements for en- trance of immigrants into Canada should be raised,Cl 6. Only those with skills required in Canada Sh0U1 be permitted entrance. . I _ _ 7. We suggest a more balanced distrtbution ofimâ€" migrants across the country and between rural and urâ€" ban areas to avoid congestion in some areas. (I under- stand there is an attempt in this direction now.) 8. There should be a limit to the number and age of the relatives the immigrants can sponsor. I 9. Many of our members have had the experience of having immigrant neighbours who have come from countries very different from ours in climatic condiâ€" tions. political practices and social customs and who find it very difficult to adjust happily. Several mem- bers suggested that we might better help these people in their homeland than bring them here. Our immi- gration records would no doubt show which countries‘ immigrants made the best Canadian citizens. I _ 10. In the same vein. we often find that the immi- grants feel they have been misled or not fully in- formed as to what to expect in Canada. They feel it has been painted as a “Utopia” only to find. in their view it is very different when they try to make a liveli- hood here. so we would suggest that life here be more realistically explained to them at the immigration mis- sions in their own countries. ii. The opinion was repeatedly expressed that our own citizens should take the jobs available to alleviate the unemployment problem and less welfare be given so they would be encouraged to do so. [2. We do not feel that we can solve the problems of overpopulation in other countries to any great ex- tent. This is the problem ofthe country concerned. For example, for us to take a million people from India would not alleviate India’s problem. but_ we feel. would create one for us. We are. of course, not averse 10 helping in so far as we can accommodate such im- migrants within our requirements. 13. Many are concerned over the numbers of im- migrants as instructors in our universities; of immi- grant nurses in our hospitals. and immigrant teachers in our schools. Perhaps if Point 6 listed here were 1m. plemented this situation might be corrected l4. Citizenship should be granted on an equal basis to men and women.
