    The correct answer is A) immigration to Canada has hit record highs.

    The statement that correctly summarizes a recent trend in immigration to Canada is "immigration to Canada has hit record highs."

    According to information from the United Nations, Canada was the country that accepted more refugees during 2018. The United Nations published the annual report about refugees in the world and Canada accepted approximately 28,000 refugees from around the world. This indicates an open-door policy from Canada to extend an open arm to people in need, coming from poor countries where they are suffering starvation or political persecution.
