Canada reducing number of immigrants over next 3 years, Trudeau announces | FULL

Canada will reduce the number of new permanent residents to the country by 21 per cent by next year, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Immigration Minister Marc Miller announced on Thursday. It’s part of a major series of changes to immigration targets that Trudeau says aims to freeze population growth. “We’re announcing that we will reduce the number of immigrants we bring in over the next three years, which will result in a pause in the population growth over the next two years,” Trudeau told reporters Thursday. “We didn’t get the balance quite right," he added. As reported by Global News on Wednesday, the federal government is reversing course on a plan to hold its immigration targets steady for 2026. According to the 2025–2027 Immigration Levels Plan, Canada will reduce the number of new permanent residents from 500,000 to 395,000 in 2025.
