Many times you hear talk here about the problem with Quebec regarding the age of workers. The problem is basically the aging of the population capable of working, which can lead to a reduction in manpower required in different jobs.
The phenomenon is known as "baby boom " and is associated with increased birth rates in many countries after the Second World War (decades of 50 and 60). All these people will retire in the coming years and there is generational change needed to fill the void that left. This phenomenon is now called " papy boom.
In part (taken from the statistical office of Canada) shows the evolution of the population by broad age groups (children, people working age and elderly). One can see that the year 2010 onwards the curve of those aged 15-64 begins to drop.
I bring the subject up, as factory where I am working most of the employees have a certain age. This eventually could open up job opportunities for immigrants, but it is nevertheless worth mentioning also that the labor market is competitive and that the person should be well poised to tap into a good job.
should also add that the Quebec government, possibly to mitigate this problem, wants to punish, to put it in some way, people who retire before age 65, to press for people continue in their jobs.
In summary, I believe that this phenomenon opens up job opportunities that immigrants can be exploited in the coming years.
