On October 31, 2023, the Canadian government announced a new immigration plan to improve the system and align it with the needs of the labour market. The plan also includes a focus on helping newcomers settle in Canada and creating a comprehensive and coordinated growth strategy.
The new plan is a sign of the government’s commitment to welcoming immigrants and building a strong and diverse society. It includes a number of important initiatives to improve the immigration system, align immigration with the needs of the labour market, and help newcomers settle in Canada.
Main points
- Modernize the immigration system with digital platforms. This will include creating a single online window into immigration programs, improving automation, and enabling digital self-service.
- Align immigration with labour market requirements. IRCC will identify the essential talents that Canada needs, the newcomers who have these skills, and how to best connect them to available positions. The government will also make it easier for international students and temporary workers with in-demand skills to stay in Canada.
- Help newcomers settle in Canada. The government will investigate further alternatives for developing an integrated strategy to manage housing, health care, and infrastructure across federal government departments, as well as in close partnership with provinces, territories, and municipalities.
Modernize the Immigration System with Digital Platforms
One of the key goals of the new plan is to modernize the immigration system with digital platforms. This will include creating a single online window into immigration programs, improving automation, and enabling digital self-service.
The government expects that these changes will expedite application processing, increase program integrity, and make the immigration process more transparent and human-centered.
Align Immigration with Labour Market Requirements
The new immigration plan also emphasizes the need to align immigration with Canada’s labour market requirements. To do this, IRCC will identify the essential talents that Canada needs, the newcomers who have these skills, and how to best connect them to available positions.
The government will also make it easier for international students and temporary workers with in-demand skills to stay in Canada.
Help Newcomers Settle in Canada and Create a Comprehensive and Coordinated Growth Strategy
In addition to attracting top talent, the new immigration plan also focuses on helping newcomers settle in Canada and creating a comprehensive and coordinated growth strategy. This includes things like housing and healthcare.
The government recognizes that some newcomers leave Canada due to difficulties with housing and getting their international credentials recognized. To address these issues, IRCC will investigate further alternatives for developing an integrated strategy to manage housing, health care, and infrastructure across federal government departments, as well as in close partnership with provinces, territories, and municipalities.
What could this announcement be?
The Canadian government is expected to announce the new immigration levels plan 2024-2026 on November 1. It is possible that the immigration minister could also announce improvements to the Canadian immigration system in response to the recommendations of the Office of the Auditor General.
Conclusion
The new Canada immigration plan is a sign of the government’s commitment to welcoming immigrants and building a strong and diverse society. The plan includes a number of important initiatives to improve the immigration system, align immigration with the needs of the labour market, and help newcomers settle in Canada.
