Statistics Canada: Study Shows Immigrants from Africa and Asia See Highest Employment

Posted on Monday, January 22, 2024 10:44 AM

News

“Landed immigrants” (or simply “immigrants”) are technical terms used by Statistics Canada to denote a permanent resident of Canada. Individuals with a temporary status (i.e.: workers on work permit and/or international students) and natural-born or naturalised citizens of Canada do not fit into this category.

The study looked at the employment rate of immigrants from various regions of the world in Canada, who were over 15 years of age. Overall, these newcomer groups had the following employment...

CTV News: How Reducing Immigration Could Affect Canada's Economy: Desjardins Report

Posted on Tuesday, January 16, 2024 11:34 AM

News

Canada's population has surged over the last year, with growth driven in large part by foreign workers and international students. But as the federal government weighs limiting non-permanent residents (NPR), a new report from Desjardins says such a move would "deepen the recession expected in 2024."

The report, written by Desjardins' senior director of Canadian economics Randall Bartlett, says the number of NPRs is expected to fall naturally as the economy slows. Under the current baseline...

Government of Canada: Foreign Credentials Recognition Program

Posted on Tuesday, January 16, 2024 11:11 AM

News

As Canada’s health care sector continues to face labour shortages, the demand for qualified workers to fill vacancies continues to grow. The Government of Canada recognizes these challenges and continues to take steps to address them by investing in projects that will help provide internationally educated professionals with the support and experience they need to pursue opportunities in Canada’s health care sector.

To help with this, a call for proposals was announced in December 2022 resulting...

CTV News: Immigration minister to consider cap on international students in Canada

Posted on Monday, January 15, 2024 10:25 AM

News

Immigration Minister Marc Miller says in the next few months he’ll be looking at the possibility of putting a cap on the number of international students living in Canada, but he wouldn’t say how great a reduction the government is planning on making.

In an interview airing Sunday, the minister told CTV’s Question Period host Vassy Kapelos this is a conversation the federal government will need to have with provincial governments “to make sure that the provinces that have not been doing their...

Global News: Canada’s population booms by 430K over 3 months. What’s behind the spike?

Posted on Tuesday, January 09, 2024 08:33 AM

News

Canada came close to breaking the highest population growth rate in any quarter this July to September when it reported 430,635 new residents in the country.

Statistics Canada reported Tuesday the population increase, which reflected a 1.1 per cent growth rate in the third quarter of 2023. That was the highest population growth rate since the second quarter of 1957, when Canada’s population grew by 198,000 people, or 1.2 per cent.

Back then, the rapid growth in population was tied to the post-war...

CTV News: Migration to Canada reaching 50-year highs, especially among non-permanent residents

Posted on Monday, January 08, 2024 10:20 AM

News

In 2023, Canada’s population of non-permanent residents (NPRs) grew by more than half a million people, part of the steepest single-year rise in at least five decades of available data.

In a report last week, Statistics Canada (StatCan) counted a total of 2.5 million NPRs as of this October, up from 1.7 million the same time last year. The 2023 growth shatters previous year-to-year records in the available data, tripling the increase of nearly 170,000 between the summers of 2018 and 2019.

Introduction to Generative AI

Posted on Tuesday, January 02, 2024 04:19 PM

Videos News

Generative AI, or GenAI, is a type of artificial intelligence that can create new content, whether it's writing, images, or music, based on the vast amounts of data it's trained on. Think of it like a highly advanced computer program that's absorbed a huge library of human creativity and can now produce its own original content. It works by recognizing patterns and structures in the data it's seen, and then it uses that knowledge to generate new, similar pieces.

CBC: P.E.I urged to press pause on immigration, while health care and housing feeling the pinch

Posted on Tuesday, January 02, 2024 09:40 AM

News

As population growth continues to place a strain on health care and housing on Prince Edward Island, there are renewed calls for the provincial government to ease back on immigration programs to give services a chance to catch up.

For years, Canada's smallest province has had one of the fastest-growing populations in the country. The latest estimate from Statistics Canada showed P.E.I. growing at an annual rate of four per cent, with 175,853 residents as of Oct. 1, 2023.

In the past month, both...

Canada remains deeply concerned about the ongoing conflict between Israel and Hamas, and the scale of the humanitarian crisis in Gaza. Since Hamas’s terrorist attack in early October, Canada has been actively working to support the assisted departure of Canadian citizens, permanent residents and their eligible family members from Israel, the West Bank and Gaza.

Bank of Canada: Assessing the Effects of Higher Immigration on the Canadian Economy

Posted on Monday, December 25, 2023 08:00 AM

News

The Bank of Canada report assesses the complex macroeconomic implications of Canada’s recent population increases. We find that newcomers significantly boost the non-inflationary, potential growth of the economy, but existing imbalances in the housing sector may be exacerbated. Greater housing supply is needed to complement the long-term economic benefits of population growth.

Canada has seen a significant increase in immigration flows since 2022. While a well-established literature looks at the...
