Although Canada is a big country most immigrants settle in the country\u2019s biggest cities \u2013 Greater Toronto and Metro Vancouver areas. This has a big impact on the cost of living and the labour market which means settling in these cities comes at a significant cost.<\/p>\n
It is important for new immigrants to understand that smaller cities in Canada have lower unemployment rates and can offer great job opportunities.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Ageing population and other economic factors have created a great need for immigrant talent in these communities.<\/p>\n
