 For almost a decade (1992 – 2001), Canada was “the best country in the world to live in”. Canada had moved back to the 8th position recently, however Canada has recently moved up to 4th position in the United Nations’ human development survey, and it is now above the United States (only below Norway, Sweden and Australia).
According to the United Nations survey (2004), life expectancy in Canada in 2002 was 79.3 years, compared to 78.9 in Norway, 80 in Sweden, and 79.1 in Australia. Other countries considered to have “low human development”, have a life expectancy of 48.5 years (Mali) and 46 years (Niger).

Canada may fast track business visa applications |
|
 Sun Media reports that the immigration department is working on a plan to fast-track some business travellers to Canada. Business visitors will then be able to obtain visas much faster than other visitors.
If the plan is put in place employees of established companies that have operations in Canada could be able to get visas in about one or two days.
“As we recognize that business is important to the economy of Canada, we’re looking at streamlining the process for business visitors, where we can use the key links between companies that we know exist and are already well-known to the mission, to streamline those processes,” assistant deputy minister Claudette Deschenes told members of Parliament’s immigration committee.

Immigration to Manitoba growing in Canada |
|
The province of Manitoba achieved the highest annual immigration rate in Canada as a record number of newcomers settle there, Statistics Canada reported yesterday.
In recent years, Manitoba has been recruiting immigrants to avert a predicted labour shortage. As a result, more than 50,000 newcomers settled in the province between 1999 and 2006. The province plans to boost immigration levels even more over the next decade.
By 2025, Manitoba will depend solely on immigration for population growth with declining birth rates and an aging population.
“We need to have a dynamic immigration program if we’re going to continue to grow Manitoba and grow our economy.” Labour and Immigration Minister Nancy Allan said in an interview.
September’s Statscan report found that immigrants who settle in Manitoba have been fortunate - they tend to get jobs more quickly and easily than those in the rest of the country. To support new immigrants, funding for settlement services, such as language, interpretation and intercultural training programs in the province has more than doubled in the past year and a half.
