This is quite simply not true.
Wealthy and educated have far easier access to immigrating into Canada. A couple of common examples:
-Hong Kong immigrants who have brought tons of wealth into the economy and were encouraged to immigrate because of it (See Vancouver).
-Punjabi immigrants from India, who despite representing a fairly small portion of India's population, control a large amount of it's wealth and therefore have immigrated here more frequently than India's other major ethnic subgroups.
