Australia initially had the largest number of immigrants in 1991 but saw a significant decline over time, ending with the lowest figure in 2001. In contrast, Canada started with the lowest number of immigrants in 1991 but achieved steady growth, surpassing Australia by 1995.
The USA began with approximately 1,000 immigrants in 1991 and witnessed steady growth over the decade. By 2000, the figure had reached 2,500, where it remained constant until 2001, marking a total increase of 1,500 immigrants during the period.
Australia started with the highest number of immigrants, at 2,700 in 1991. However, this figure declined sharply over the next four years to just 500 by 1995. After this dramatic drop, the number remained stagnant until 2001, making it the country with the lowest number of immigrants by the end of the period.Canada initially had the lowest number of immigrants, at around 500 in 1991. However, it experienced a rapid rise, peaking at 2,250 by 1995. Afterward, the number dropped significantly to 1,100 in 1996 before gradually increasing to 1,600 by 2001—three times the starting figure.
