The chart illustrates the number of immigrants to the USA, Canada, and Australia between 1990 and 2001.
Overall, the USA consistently had the highest number of immigrants, with significant fluctuations during the period, particularly between 1991 and 1993. Canada and Australia, on the other hand, received far fewer immigrants, with Canada showing a gradual increase by the end of the period, while Australia remained relatively stable.
In the USA, the number of immigrants rose dramatically from approximately 1.45 million in 1991 to a peak of 1.8 million in 1992. However, this figure dropped sharply to 1 million in 1993. Afterward, immigration numbers fluctuated slightly, with a minor decline from 1997 to 1999 before recovering to around 1.2 million in 2001.
In contrast, Canada and Australia received much smaller numbers of immigrants throughout the period. Australia’s figures remained stable, fluctuating between 100,000 and 200,000 without any significant trend. Meanwhile, immigration to Canada increased steadily, starting at approximately 200,000 in 1990 and reaching 400,000 by 2001, with a notable rise between 2000 and 2001.
In summary, while the USA experienced large-scale and fluctuating immigration, Canada showed a steady upward trend, and Australia maintained a consistently low level of immigration.
