Canada is set to exceed the immigration target level in 2022

By م.زهير الشاعر

Published: August 25, 2022

Canadian Immigration Minister Sean Fraser said on Wednesday that Canada is moving forward to exceed its immigration target by granting permanent residence to more than 430,000 people in 2022.

Fraser also announced a plan to hire 1,250 workers to overcome a record high number of immigration applicants.

Canada, which relies on immigration to drive its economy and support its aging population, is working to increase annual immigration, with a target to add 451,000 permanent residents in 2024.

Official data released earlier this year showed that Canada’s population rose to 37 million in 2021, an increase of 5.2% from 2016, mostly driven by immigration.
