Yesterday, Statistics Canada published data from the latest census showing that population growth, stimulated mostly
by migratory increase, was the strongest among G7 countries between 2011 and 2016, a ranking also recorded in the prior
intercensal. It is not a coincidence that Canadas economy also registered the strongest growth among G7 countries during
the past decade as real potential growth is strongly correlated with workingage population growth. As todays Hot Chart
shows, international migration could have lift potential GDP growth by almost one percentage point in 2016 because
without net migration the 15-64 cohort would be declining at a 0.3% pace instead of a 0.6% rise. Which helps furthermore
the Canadian economy is that among OECD countries, Canada has been receiving the highest proportion of immigrants
with a high level of education which also explains why the countrys employment rate for residents born abroad is among
the highest of the advanced economies.
