Canada Introduces New Immigration Plan for 2025-2027

The Government of Canada has announced a new immigration plan for 2025-2027, which aims to manage population growth by setting controlled targets for temporary and permanent residents. The plan, introduced by Marc Miller, Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship, is designed to address short-term population growth while ensuring sustainable development in the long term.

Key aspects of the plan include:

• Establishing controlled targets for temporary residents, including international students and foreign workers.
• Transitioning more temporary residents to permanent residency, with a focus on those already integrated into Canadian society.
• Increasing permanent resident admissions in economic sectors such as health and trades.
• Strengthening Francophone communities outside Quebec.

The plan also aims to alleviate pressures on housing, infrastructure, and social services, aligning with Canada's economic and social prosperity goals. The government will continue to monitor and adjust immigration policies as needed to ensure they meet the country's evolving needs.
