Government Of Canada Announces 2023-2025 Immigration Levels Plan
November 1, 2022The Government of Canada is planning a massive increase in the number of immigrants entering Canada, with a goal of seeing 500,000 people arrive each year by 2025.
Today, Tuesday, November 1, 2022, the Honourable Sean Fraser, Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship, released Canada’s 2023–2025 Immigration Levels Plan. The plan puts an emphasis on increasing the number immigrants who will be admitted to Canada based on their work skills or experience over the next three years. The ultimate goal is to help Canadian businesses find workers and to attract the skills required in key sectors—including health care, skilled trades, manufacturing and technology.
The Government of Canada is setting targets in the new levels plan of 465,000 permanent residents in 2023, 485,000 in 2024 and 500,000 in 2025. The plan has a long-term focus on economic growth, with just over 60% of admissions in the economic class by 2025. The number of economic immigrants to be admitted to Canada from 2023 to 2025 is projected to be as follows:
2023: 266,210
2023: 281,135
2024: 301,250
The plan comes on the heels of a report from Statistics Canada that a record 23 per cent of people in Canada are landed immigrants or permanent residents.
