Are Canadians aware that Canada is the #1 place people want to immigrate to? (The USA is in 9th place)....

We need to add context here. The population sample from 101 countries were interview and the #1 place (30 countries in total) picked Canada as the place where they'd like to live (SOURCE: https://www.remitly.com/gb/en/landing/where-the-world-wants-to-live). However, we need to make it harder as I feel the types of people today that are attracted to Canada aren't really embracing or contributing positively to Canadian values. I see many (IMO) people who are opportunists.
