Migration and Population

Today in class we talked about migration and population. I think it's surprising how many people there actually are in the world. I knew there were a lot, but i never knew exactly how much. Yesterday, we got to see a live population counter which had gone up quite a lot just by the end of class. We also talked about migration. One thing that surprised me about migration was how many people immigrate to Canada. I've always assumed more people migrate to the United States because of how relevant it is in todays news channels and politics. However, I was surprised to see that Canada's immigration rate was actually much higher than the U.S's. Another thing I found interesting was how Canada provides less expensive health care.
