Immigrants help fund social and public programs

Goldy Hyder connects immigration to the challenge of broadening Canada’s tax base to fund social and public programs. His statement on Minister Mendicino’s announcement of establishing new pathways to permanent residency was referenced in an article by the Toronto Star.

“They fill labour-market shortages, offset our aging population and broaden the tax base, thereby helping fund social and public services.”
