“Экономические беды в U.S. are driving Americans across the northern border in near-record numbers as they seek better job opportunities and cheaper education in Canada.”

That’s according to a recent Отчет CTV News, который заявил, что Канада выдается 35,060 все U.S. residents in 2010 and an additional 34,185 visas to Americans in 2011.

As the unemployment rate in the United States remains high, “it’s natural you’re going to see more…young Americans pursuing economic opportunity here,” said Canada’s Minister of Citizenship, Иммиграция, и мультикультурализма Джейсон Кенни.

Аналогично, more American students are applying to Canadian universities чтобы избежать более высокую стоимость обучения к югу от границы.
