China has emerged as the top exporter of immigrants to Canada, why exactly is that? Perhaps one reason could be the vast difference in healthcare.

The healthcare facilities are far better in Canada compared to China. Though Chinese people are reputed to last till a ripe old age,Healthcare facilities are far better in Canada  compared to China Articles quite a few of them die at a premature age because of various types of ailments. Many of them who are planning to immigrate are from the villages where there are hardly any facilities for healthcare. There are countless occasions when even basic healthcare facilities are not available and people have to do with village doctors who practice the art of herbal medication.

 

Though acupuncture was discovered in China, professionals of this medicine are only available in large towns and cities. Viewing this problem, the current generation of Chinese youth are no longer interested in the villages where there will be nobody to look after them in case they fall seriously ill. Visiting the nearest town to meet the doctor also becomes a problem for the village folk because of lack of proper roads and transport. Those who want to shift over to cities cannot do so, because there is hardly any space left over there. Most of the cities of China have reached the saturation point.

 

It is because of this that there are transportation logs and one has to spend lots of time moving from one point to the other. Compare this with the situation in Canada where the villages and towns have their own licensed doctors. The roads connecting the villages to the towns and big cities are immaculate. If this is not enough, most of the villages have their own ambulance, which helps by taking the sick to hospitals in the city, if their ailment cannot be cured in the village. These are reasons enough for the Chinese people to immigrate to Canada.

 

They know that they will find far better treatment in that country where they are planning to immigrate. They also know that they shall not feel lonely over there since there are many other people of their country who also have now moved to Canada. Chinese hotels line the streets in every city and even Chinese newspapers are now available. Taking into account these countless advantages that are available in Canada, it is not surprising to see many people immigrating from China. They know that they have a far brighter future if they shift over to that country rather than remaining back in their fatherland.
