Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s government is taking more steps to reduce immigration in a country that has buckled under the strain of explosive population growth.
Marc Miller, Canada s immigration minister. --
The new measures, although incremental, fill in some of the gaps in the government’s plan to shrink its temporary resident population. That’s a group that includes foreign students, temporary workers and asylum seekers. It had grown rapidly after the pandemic and is a key source of criticisms against Trudeau’s mishandling of immigration policies.
The government is expected to announce the first-ever temporary resident target for 2025 to 2027 by Nov. 1. “The reality is that not everyone who wants to come to Canada will be able to — just like not everyone who wants to stay in Canada will be able to,” Miller said in a statement. “Our immigration system must preserve its integrity, and be well managed and sustainable.
