Canada's population decreased by 76,068 between July and October due to restrictions on immigration, marking the second quarter-over-quarter decline since the 1940s, driven mainly by a drop in non-permanent residents, as the government aims to balance immigration levels with national capacity.
Canada plans to set limits on the number of temporary residents it admits, including international students, temporary foreign workers, and asylum seekers, in response to rising costs of living and infrastructure challenges. The country aims to decrease its temporary resident population to 5% over the next three years and will include both temporary and permanent resident arrivals in its Immigration Levels Plan. The move is likely to impact Indian aspirants, as Canada has been a popular destination for Indian temporary workers and international students. The government also aims to align immigration with labor market needs and ensure robust pathways to permanent residence for those who wish to make Canada their home.
