Canada is an immigrant country whose population consists of millions of people who come from almost every corner around the world; therefore, it is not surprise that Canadian workforce is becoming increasingly diverse and this trend seems not stop in a short future.
Being diverse in the whole society absolutely benefits the power of Canada. These immigrants bring different culture, attitudes, technologies and values into Canada while they arrive, which can create a dynamic and colorful economic environment that enhance the well-educated labor pool as well as improve the economic effectiveness and efficiency.
Currently, the proportions of visible minorities increase fast in Canadian workforce. Being diverse has obvious benefits than disadvantages. For instance, employing a certain portion of visible minority helps company to establish a good image to the society and to better attract and serve those immigrants who tend to have the same culture, by doing this, companies will make more profits. Furthermore, increasing the visible minorities in workforce can improve their sense of belonging, so they are able to fit this country more quickly.
It would be interesting to look up Stats Canada to get some recent immigration statistics.
