Business Climate
The population in Canada is growing because more people are becoming a citizen and the older population is living longer. Canada is the 32nd largest country in population. The population statistics as of July 2009 is 33,487,208. In the workforce the aging populations are staying at work longer.
Most of the corporations in Canada are hiring immigrants due to large amount of them crossing the border. There is a high demand for skilled workers because not enough of the locals are continuing their education. The aging population is staying in the workforce longer because the birth rate is low and there are no young people to replace those getting close to retirement age. Because of this situation the Canadians will continue to look at immigrants to hire.
Canada is working on improving the education system because of the high school drop-out rate among locals or immigrants. Most of locals attend public schools and most schools are taught in English and French because both languages are welcome in the schools. Students are not graduating and corporations are finding out that their companies have to hire outside of Canada. The Board of Education is implementing ideas on how to retain students to stay in school. The GDP spends most of it funds programs for schools. Canada economy is strong but always have to be aware of global economic.

International Trade Patterns
Overall, the judicial systems of Canada and the United States are very similar. Both have courts for appeals and those for military, and, of course, the Supreme Court. Historically, Canada’s court system can be traced back to the United Kingdom, just as the United States can be along with how we have set up our government.
Different states have various ways of ruling and governing their political community. The way states rule reflects upon the political community and the extent of positive and negative liberty available to their citizens. Canada has come a long way to establishing successful rights and freedoms and is able to do so due to the consideration of the people. These rights and freedoms are illustrated through negative and positive liberties; negative liberty is “freedom from” and positive liberty is “freedom to”. A democracy, which is the style of governing utilized by Canada is one that is governed more so by the citizens and a state is a political community that is self-governing which establishes rules that are binding.
Canada is a society built on the promise of democracy; democracy being defined as “government by the people; a form of government in which the supreme power is vested in the people and exercised directly by them or by their elected agents under a free electoral system.” In order to operate at full potential, the people of Canada must voice their opinions and participate fully in the political system. This is why it’s shocking to see that people are becoming less engaged in politics and the voter turnout has steadily been declining over the last 20 years. This lack of participation by Canadians is creating a government that is influenced by fewer people, which is detrimental to the democratic system Canada is built on.
Immigration provides very constant growth in the labor force, which is helping the Canadian labor market. With the amount of immigrants coming into Canada, there is an increase of jobs being taken in the Canadian labor force. They make up to 70% of labor force and most likely will increase higher percent in the future. The immigrants who have provided their needs for the Canadian labor market for growth and its success take up a great portion of the Canadian labor force population. The immigrants who have come into Canada are skilled workers, (entrepreneurs, investors, professionals, etc) or are unskilled workers (farmers, plumbers, electricians, laborers, etc.).
Canada is a vast country with a strong multiculturalism policy, many distinct regions, and heavy foreign influence. The size of Canada has shaped much of Canadian’s way of life. Communications could not have developed easily or naturally in Canada without relying on technological innovations to bond the country in a communicative society. Canada has been divided into provinces and territories which have extremely different terrains, climates, economies and cultures. These differences create conflicting interests and misunderstandings.
Canada is not truly democratic because it has the Senate that supports the Prime Minister on every decision made, it uses First Past The Post (FPTP) that determines the leader based on each parties votes which is not the majority and it has a voter turnout that is low which shows that majority of the population don’t take part in voting. In a democracy the people rule which means that citizens have the right to vote, people have the right to run for office and majority rules. When a country is a democracy the opinion of the greater number should prevail, the rights of minorities will be protected, no one is above the law, all citizens have fundamental rights and citizens have a sense of responsibility to their community. However, there are
Canada is a big country possessing many natural and rich resources. Since World War II, Canada’s manufacturing, mining and service sectors experienced a significant increase which transformed the country from a mainly rural economy to a mainly urban and industrial economy (Central Intelligence Agency, 2015). Immigration plays a big role in Canada’s history, starting as early as settlers from France and England. By 1960, around one-third of Canada’s population had neither a British or French origin (Government of Canada, 2011). Immigration is important to Canada as it does not only help to maintain its population growth, but it also helps the challenges it faces to a shrinking work force due to its aging population. The immigration
Canada has become a superior nation thru, perseverance, courage and even care as they persevered thru many dark battles, and made sure they all came thru together as a unit other than individuals. Their courage made there fighting 100% stronger as they wouldn’t back down to any task and they weren’t afraid to lose their life to help a fellow friend and country out. Care played a major aspect in each Canadian heart. There cared about Britain so they weren’t to go help them when they declared war, they helped other troops with their emotional problems and lastly they even cared a little about there enemies as they are the same person, however the only thing separating them is there culture. Canadians contributed in many ways to help our country's great efforts in the First World War.
Canada has a central government designed to deal with the country as a whole. Things like national defense, banking, currency, and commerce are controlled by the central government. All other matters are left to the provinces to deal with. Such as education, hospitals, and civil rights are responsibilities of the states. The Canadian Parliament consists of two houses. Their Senate is made up of 104 members who serve until the age of seventy-five.
There is a major difference between what law is, and what law ought to be. Although several ideas derived from natural law theory line up with the beliefs of the constitutional monarchy of Canada, there are inconsistencies. That said, the system of law in Canada is most comparable with Legal Positivism. After analyzing the purpose of Legal Positivism, the similarities between it and Canada’s legal system become obvious. Both systems exercise the concept of primary and secondary rules, both contain a theory of legal obligation and lastly, both have a theory which answers for judicial interpretation.
As Canadian's fertility rate fells, baby boomers retires, immigration and foreign workers becomes very important for the increase of labor demands in the Canadian's job market. The government is planning to reduce the application waiting time and therefore there will be more newcomers coming in the next fewer years. Canadian companies will then have many experienced and foreign trained applicants where they can help Canadian companies to increase their foreign trade and to build a better relationship with the other country. However, new comers have difficulties in finding employment because of their unrecognized foreign qualifications, non Canadian work experienced and the lack of support in the settlement programs where they get help to find employment.
Every country in the world has its own cultural uniqueness. What makes Canada even more unique than other countries is the fact that it is a melting-pot of many other cultures. What happened when all these cultures came together and started having contact with each other is that each culture proved itself exclusive but somewhat compatible with the other cultures. That may have caused people of different ethnic groups not to bond in such successful ways; nevertheless there still exists a strong attachment between an individual and their roots. That fusion and unity of the different cultures in this country makes its economy unique.
known for decades: it pays to invest in Canada. There is a government commitment to attract foreign direct investment. Canada's government provides a competitive, welcoming climate for international business. It is committed to fiscal responsibility, deficit reduction and job creation.
Canada is the second largest country in the world. In Canada, there have been many immigrants from all over the world. People mostly come for a better future for themselves and their children, while others come here due to the country's respect of human rights. Canada always allowed immigrants to be able to celebrate religious or national holidays. This gives a chance for everyone not to forget his or her background. In Canada, there is not as much racism as in many other countries. This will someday become the key to world peace and harmony. Through Canada's multiculturalism, people appreciate each other's differences and this reduces racial confusions. In United States, on the other hand, there it has been always difficult for people to promote their religion and culture openly. For example in US, people have been always considering black people as ruiners and even thieves. They have been always looking at them differently and scared of them. This simple comparison concentrates on the very first two questions and represents Canada as a more humanistic society than United States.
