據National Post報道,Angus Reid Institute 的一份民意調查顯示,近一半的加拿大人認為應減少移民數量,支持增加移民數量的加拿大人僅為6%,為1975年以來最低。

據Angus Reid Institute執行總監Shachi Kurl介紹說,這份報告將2018年的統計數據與此前由Gallup和Harris/Decima公司所做的調查數據相比較,以了解這幾年加國人民對於移民的態度變化。因此,數據並非完全準確,還需要更多的調查。今年參加調查的1500人來自Angus Reid論壇。
與2014年相比,認為移民數量應該減少的人數上升了13%,而希望增加的人數則減少了17%,均為歷年之最。
The report notes that immigration targets have risen steadily since the 2014 survey, from 260,000 then to 310,000 now. However, immigration as a proportion of the Canadian population has stayed roughly the same since 1975, at between 0.5 per cent and 1 per cent annually. An exception is the late 1970s and early 1980s, when the percentage of immigrants was well below 0.5 per cent annually.
報告稱,從2014年,目標移民數量穩定增長,從26萬到31萬,但移民占加拿大人口比例卻幾乎不變,在0.5%與1%之間。

總體而言,過去保守黨支持者更傾向於減少移民數量(67%),而自由黨與綠黨則傾向於增加移民。(Alice編譯)
