Pull factors are the reasons people would want to immigrate to Canada.

• A. reasons people would leave their home country
• B. reasons people would want to immigrate to Canada
• C. government programs for settlement
• D. economic incentives in the home country

Answer: (B)

Pull factors are the attractions that draw people to a destination country. When people consider moving to Canada, things like steady job opportunities, political stability, safety, good healthcare and education, and access to social services act as pulls that make Canada appealing. These are the motivations behind choosing to immigrate to Canada. The other ideas describe reasons people might leave their home country (push factors), or programs that help newcomers settle, or conditions at home that might encourage staying—none of which capture the idea of being drawn to Canada.
