This study by Khamael Al-Faris, a PhD student at Plymouth University, explores the political, economic, and social contexts of immigration policies in Britain and Canada. It delves into the historical aspects, discriminatory practices, shift in public attitudes, and the impact on health and security. By examining the evolution of immigration laws, including the open door policies, exclusions, discriminations, and points systems, the research aims to draw comparisons between the two countries and their approaches to managing immigrant rights and freedoms. The study also considers the economic implications of immigration policies and references key scholarly works on the subject.
