Canada to announce immigration levels plan 2023- 2025 this morning

Today at 11 a.m. ET, Immigration Minister Sean Fraser will discuss the plan with the media. Once the strategy is made public, CIC News will update this article with Canada's new aims. The number of immigrants that Canada hopes to accept over the next three years is determined by the Immigration Levels Plan. This morning, Canada will publish its Immigration Levels Plan for the years 2023 to 2025.

At 11 a.m. Eastern Time, the idea will be discussed at a press conference by Canada's Minister of Immigration, Sean Fraser. Once the strategy has been developed, CIC News will update this article with Canada's new immigration goals.

The number of immigrants that Canada hopes to accept each year is determined by the Immigration Levels Plan. Growing the economy, reuniting families, and providing asylum to refugees fleeing persecution abroad are among Canada's immigration objectives.

The nation is currently going through a unique time when there is a labor shortage and around one million open positions. Both serve as catalysts for the nation's expanding immigration goals.

Canada has one of the lowest birth rates in the world, at 1.4 children for every woman. This has an additional negative influence on labor shortages. Immigration will soon be the only option for Canada's population and labor force to grow due to the slow natural increase in population (the number of births still exceeds the number of deaths each year).

In addition, Canada needs immigrants to keep its tax base robust, which is important for funding necessities like healthcare and education. The population of Canada is among the oldest in the world.

By 2030, nine million individuals, or over one-fourth of Canada's population, will be of retirement age. Because of this, there will be a severe labor shortage in all spheres of the economy.

According to the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act (IRPA), Canada's primary immigration statute, the government must announce the Immigration Levels Plan each year by November 1. However, the 2022–2024 immigration levels plan was the second to be released in 2022; the first statement took place in February following the September 20, 2021, federal election, which prompted the 2021 announcement.

The three entrance classes in Canada

The bulk of new immigrants who become permanent residents do so via provincial nomination programs or economic class programs like those found in the Express Entry system (PNPs).

The goal of IRCC is to reunite families. The Immigration Levels Plan's second-largest permanent residence class after economic class programs is family class sponsorship. Programs for family-based immigration require sponsors to be a spouse, partner, kid, or another immediate family member.

Under the Immigration Levels Plan, refugees and humanitarian-class immigrants also receive funding. Canadians have a long history of granting sanctuary to refugees who are escaping dangerous conditions in their native countries.

The immigration policy of Canada

In the 1980s, Canada's present immigration policy started to take shape. The government at the time did not plan as far ahead and frequently based immigration targets on the current state of the economy.

Canada received fewer than 90,000 immigrants in 1984. The Canadian government, led by the Conservatives, anticipated a labor shortage in the early 1990s and upped immigration targets to 250,000 new permanent residents in just eight years.

The succeeding Liberal administration expanded on these goals but, as a result of a financial crisis, started to emphasize welcoming more immigrants from the economic class and lowering Canada's proportion of immigrants from the family and humanitarian classes.

Up to the current Liberal administration entering office in 2015, Canada admitted about 260,000 immigrants yearly. Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic starting in 2020, the targets were raised to 300,000 and then 340,000.

In 2020, it was challenging for the IRCC to process applications due to border closures and other travel restrictions. Nevertheless, Canada exceeded its goal for immigration in 2021 and admitted 405,000 more permanent residents than ever before. These goals were met thanks to the Canadian Experience Class and Provincial Nomination Programs' generous slot allocations (PNPs).
