The core of Quebec immigrants in Canada is employment.
On the morning of August 8, 2009, local time in Quebec was 2065438+,the Quebec government announced that it would invest 20 million Canadian dollars every year to provide personalized help services for immigrants. The goal is to ensure that everyone who chooses Quebec can stay there to work and live. At the same time, mastering French knowledge is an important factor in integrating into Quebec society.
A careful study of the wording of the recent changes in Quebec government's immigration policy shows that the purpose of Quebec government is still very clear. Quebec is facing a serious labor shortage, so when accepting immigrants, the government gives priority to economic immigrants who can quickly adapt to society and the labor market.
As early as 2065438 local time in Quebec+July 5, 2009, Quebec Immigration Minister announced that in addition to the existing budget of 1 billion yuan, the provincial government will invest 70.3 million yuan to improve new immigrants and integrate into the French-speaking society in Quebec. Foreign workers and international students with temporary visas and their spouses will receive services to learn French. Among them, the weekly allowance will be increased to 65,438+085 Canadian dollars for new immigrants studying French full-time and immigrants with work or study visas, so as to ensure that all immigrants can easily obtain high-quality French courses and encourage them to integrate into the workplace and Quebec society.
The other two major changes in Quebec's immigration policy are that on July 10, local time in Quebec, the Quebec Immigration Bureau suddenly announced that it would suspend the application of PEQ (student class) from July 19 to July/KLOC-0+0/day. (1 65438+1October1will be opened again, not permanently closing the PEQ project). According to the notice issued by the Immigration Bureau, the reason for suspending this project is the need to give priority to temporary residents who have jobs in Quebec.
Quebec's application for regular skilled immigrants 18000 was completely invalid, and then a series of amendments were made to Quebec's immigration law, emphasizing French skills and the needs of the regional labor market, and ensuring that immigrants are linked to the needs of the labor market. At the same time, immigrants are required to learn French, accept Quebec values and ensure that new immigrants can adapt to Quebec society.
Therefore, to sum up, there should be no doubt that the core of Quebec immigrants is employment. A series of policy benefits given by the Quebec provincial government are mainly aimed at keeping everyone in Quebec.
Extended reading: the educational advantage of Canadian immigrants
1. Education investment is higher than most countries.
Canada spends more money on education every year than most other countries. In Canada, education is regarded as the most ideal way to get a decent life and promote personal growth and happiness.
2. Fair educational resources
In the allocation of public education resources, not only China, but even the United States is not as balanced as Canadian education resources.
A Canadian mother said that my own children will go to kindergarten this fall, but I can't tell you whether public schools are "good" or "bad". Mainly because, on the whole, our public school system is the same no matter where you live.
3. Qualified teachers.
In Canada, teachers are respected professions, and they have a good working environment, including a sound medical insurance and pension plan. Teachers in Canada have received professional teaching training, and their assessment system for obtaining teacher qualifications is perfect and strict, which ensures that all teachers in Canada are high-level teachers with teacher qualification certificates and excellent abilities.
4. "Education through fun"
In Canada, games have long been recognized by the scientific community. There is evidence that games can improve children's ability of language expression, exploration, thinking and problem solving. Games can even give children an emotional and social sense of accomplishment.
5. Examination and continuing education system
Education in Canada has a perfect curriculum system: K- 12 education system. K- 12 is a general term for kindergarten, primary school and secondary school education, which refers to kindergarten (5-6 years old) and twelfth grade (17- 18 years old).
During this period, Canadian educational institutions will provide all free education for children. Before the eighth grade, students don't have to take exams, and their grades are generally homework, exams and course participation. The final exam didn't start until the ninth grade, and the results won't be made public.
6. 1000 book pre-school reading plan.
Canada has implemented a reading program called Preschool Reading 1000 Books. Children before the age of 6 can participate in this activity for free as long as they register on the website.
7. Project learning method
The traditional teaching mode is: teachers teach and students listen. In Canadian classrooms, teachers and students like to learn through project-based learning. Students are no longer passive recipients of knowledge, but should take the initiative to explore, investigate and understand knowledge. In this process, children's independent thinking ability, teamwork ability and critical thinking ability have been exercised.
8. Social practice activities
Canadian students attach great importance to social practice. According to statistics, in Canada,1the proportion of young people aged 5 to 24 is over (58%).
