Unprecedented Numbers
In 2024, Canada aims to invite an impressive 485,000 permanent residents (PRs), and the numbers continue to soar for 2025 and 2026. These two years will see an even higher target of 500,000 new immigrants annually. The plan's primary objectives are clear: drive economic growth, promote family reunification, and respond to global humanitarian crises.
