More than 15 per cent of immigrants decide to leave Canada either to return to their homeland or immigrate to another country within 20 years of their arrival, according to a new study.

Immigrants are self selected people who are willing to relocate their lives - if asshats like Danielle Smith threaten to radically change the character of the country they chose to move to then it shouldn't be surprising they'll choose to move on.

I'm an immigrant, I'm feeling awfully tempted by Europe (Spain specifically) where social welfare is prioritized.

yeah I’m an immigrant, and I like it here but I definitely fit the profile of “willing to pack up and move to a new place” (which obviously not all immigrants fit into)

Isn't the set of immigrents inclusive of the subset of refugees?
