Solution

If the earnings return to skills were to fall in Canada, the selection would likely remain positive, but the average skills of immigrants would fall. This is because if the financial incentive for highly skilled workers to immigrate to Canada decreases, fewer highly skilled workers would choose to immigrate. However, the overall selection would still remain positive as people would continue to immigrate to Canada for other reasons such as better living conditions, safety, etc.
