The lecture will also report on the more popular rural municipalities or regions where many immigrants are deciding to live in Canada. Finally, from surveys conducted at Statistics Canada, details of some of the reasons immigrants go to and stay at a location.

Use the SEARCH function with 'Immigrants' to find 131 documents about RURAL community discussions regarding immigration as part of community development. Also there are government policy documents. I have not looked very much at these documents but from what I have seen all these documents do not discuss immigration programs, policy or community interests in any great detail.
