I don't have any specific data, but most immigrants to Canada, in general, are fairly educated, and the investor class immigrants make up a large proportion. In Europe, by contrast, immigrants have been brought in to perform the most menial jobs. Dishwashers, cleaners, unskilled trades. They're often from rural regions, and have low education. Among Muslim immigrants to parts of Europe, for example, it's often common for unattached young men to bring in a bride from their country of origin, typically an illiterate young woman from the countryside. This present serious challenges to integration.
