Immigration Rises Slightly


There are now about five hundred more immigrants in Iceland than there were last year, according to Statistics Iceland. At the end of the year there were 10,636 immigrants in Iceland, up from 10,180 at the end of 2003. The 2003 figures actually show a drop in immigration, down from 10,221 in 2002. Also, the immigrant population is smaller in Iceland than it is in other parts of Scandinavia: in Iceland, immigrants comprise 3.6% of the population; in Norway, 4.5%; in Denmark, 5% and in Sweden, 5.3%.

This is false. Sweden's population is comprised of at least 20% immigrants. I don't know where these people get their statistics, but they're about 20 years old. :coffee:

Indeed, and Malmö is more like 80%? I found a lovely little "blip" in the Canadian Census data myself.. about 10% of the population identifying itself as "Canadian"; that must be a new ethnicity because I surely have never heard of it. I think conservatively we can assume half of that 10% is made up of immigrants attempting to force naturalization.

I mean I'm "Canadian" in a national sense, but what the hell are they doing responding with "Canadian" on an ethnicity survey?

Beware these attempts at false representation, and always read between the lines.

Remember G.W.Bush says "clear skies initiative" when he is polluting the environment, and "no child left behind" when he cuts funding to childcare programs; Orwellian doublespeak and outright deception--it's going on all over.

The more sour goes the experiment of multi-culturalism, the greater the lies will become. They don't want you knowing the truth. Keep your eyes open.

It should be noted that there are many immigrants not on record.

Not just illegal ones but rathre to be considered most the ones that are staying with other immigrants and/or have been invited to the hosting country by them.

Not to forget those who continue to work here after their visa has expired...

I wonder how one might take the path of getting these people out of here so that it might still be universally accepted, since we can't afford international interference.
