Montreal passes Vancouver as immigrant destination
Montreal, buoyed by a robust economy and aggressive recruitment strategies, vaulted past Vancouver last year among top Canadian destinations for immigrants.

It is the first time since 1993 that Montreal has occupied second place behind perennial leader Toronto — a further sign of the economic turnaround on Quebec's island metropolis.

The Montreal region received 33,004 immigrants in 2002, compared with 29,922 for Vancouver, according to numbers released in June by Immigration Canada.
