The report clarifies that integration is difficult because most working institutions don’t recognize academic credentials obtained out of Canada. This makes it difficult for immigrants to maneuver across different job opportunities available within Quebec. Posca suggests that the government should try and accommodate different academic qualifications that have been obtained from world-class institutions whose courses are accredited by the relevant regulatory bodies. This will give the immigrants a chance to apply for various job opportunities available within the province. Besides, it will reduce employment discrimination to a manageable level and attract more qualified individuals during immigration windows.

Reducing the number of immigrants is not a well-advised move because the population of Quebec is slowly aging and needs to be replaced with young, energetic individuals. The immigrants come with standard academic credentials that can be effectively used to drive Quebec towards greater economic success. This can only be achieved with maximum support from the government. There is no evidence that immigrants don’t bring much to the development of Quebec.

If employment opportunities are accurately balanced, then well-qualified immigrants can be easily absorbed into the province’s working population for a greater course. For this reason, the government of Quebec should retain the number of annual immigrants to the initial 50,000. However, clean scrutiny needs to be done to ensure that only those who’ll add economic value to the province are given the immigration pass
