Skilled Worker Selection and the Flawed Lawmaking ProcessHyndman, Kyle C. 27 November 2013 (has links)
While Canadian immigration law has generally evolved incrementally, the law and policy around skilled immigrant selection has undergone generational shifts. The 1960s and 1970s saw the implementation of a human capital model, whereby immigrants were selected based on long-term adaptability to the labour market. This shift was accompanied by a broad national discussion on immigration. In the past decade, Canada has seen another generational shift away from the human capital model towards an employment-based model, where immigrants are chosen based on immediate employment prospects. The consequences of this shift are profound for our economy and society, but this change has not been accompanied by meaningful consultation or debate. Even more problematic has been the use of various lawmaking tools to limit debate and avoid judicial scrutiny. In contrasting recent changes and the accompanying lawmaking processes with the previous changes, this paper argues for a more comprehensive national conversation on immigration.

The Impact of Undocumented Immigration on Unfunded Mandates and Government EffectivenessMendolia, Mary Elizabeth 03 April 2015 (has links)
The purpose of this study is to assess the impact of undocumented immigration on the United States, specifically the economic implications they may carry and the government effectiveness in managing this population. Utilizing the method of qualitative content analysis, this study examined the various aspects of the U.S. economy affected by this population and the nation's past and current immigration policies. The research found the undocumented population to be an expense on the host economy through their use of social and public services, with expenses even higher in the Southwest Border States. It is important to note, however, that there are benefits to providing these services. In addition amnesty-type policies were shown to be ineffective at managing the population due to various deficiencies. The nation's past experience with the Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986 (IRCA) is a strong example. / McAnulty College and Graduate School of Liberal Arts; / Graduate Center for Social and Public Policy / MA; / Thesis;

Influence of U.S. immigration laws on Chinese immigration, United States, 1980 to 2002Luo, Hua 29 August 2005 (has links)
Historically, Chinese immigrants to the United States are a special group. They were
or almost were banned from 1882 to 1968. Since in 1968 the United States abolished
national origin quotas and eliminated national, race, or ancestry as a basis for
immigration, thousands of Chinese immigrants came to the United States. The total
population of Chinese immigrants to the US between 1980 and 2002 was 911,220,
whereas it was 136,843 between 1891 and 1979. Not only did the population of Chinese
immigrants have great change, the quality of Chinese immigrants also had substantial
difference from those immigrated in the last century. However, there are very limited
literatures focusing on the dynamics of Chinese immigration in these twenty years, which
is the most important time period for Chinese immigration.
The following study tries to describe the dynamics of Chinese immigration to the
United States between 1980 and 2002; and analyze the influence of the American
immigration laws on Chinese immigration. The dynamics of Chinese immigrants are
described and analyzed by different migration categories. Other social and economic
factors are added to comprehensively understand the change of Chinese immigration.
