After setting ambitious immigration goals with 485,000 permanent residents targeted for 2024, Canada is recalibrating its approach for the coming year. The government has announced plans to reduce the number of new permanent residents to 395,000 in 2025. Despite this adjustment, Canada maintains its commitment to immigration through over 80 diverse programs and visas, ranging from skilled worker pathways to family sponsorship options. These programs continue to offer opportunities for individuals seeking to contribute to Canada’s multicultural society and growing economy.
