October 19 marked the third consecutive victory of the Liberal Party led by Justin Trudeau. This result is extremely important for Canadian immigration policy.
The Liberal Party of Canada won a convincing victory, ending nearly a decade of rule by the Conservative Party of Canada. During the campaign, immigration was the most talked about alongside climate change, affordable housing and economic recovery.
Both the Liberals and the Conservatives promise positive changes in immigration policy because of the social and economic benefits. Critical changes are: increasing migration numbers and addressing the backlog of increasing the number of new permanent residents.
The election results will lead to some major and unexpected policy changes for Canadian immigrants in the years to come. However, these changes are expected to inherit and promote the strengths of the immigration policy of the Liberal Party since 2015.
This means a commitment to welcome high waves of immigration to support Canada’s post-pandemic economic recovery, as well as family reunification, refugees, newcomers, other global talent including temporary foreign workers and international students.
Recruiting foreign workers in Canada
The Liberals will support foreign workers and Canadian employers by setting up a Trusted Employer to optimize the application process. single. They are also committed to improving the Global Talent Streams by simplifying visa renewals, maintaining two-week processing standards, and setting up an employer hotline for companies to attract and hire workers.
Family reunification
Throughout the election campaign, the Liberal Party has always pledged to change the family reunification immigration policy towards a more open and rapid direction, including:
Federal Express Entry
The Liberals want to widen the path for temporary foreign workers and international alumni through the Express Entry scoring system (known as the Comprehensive Ranking System).
In addition, Mr. Justin’s party promised to review Express Entry’s CRS and proposed to give additional points to candidates with siblings in Canada. The Liberals also want family reunification factors to be convertible into points in Express Entry programs.
Temporary work permits
The Liberals propose to improve Canada’s Temporary Foreign Worker Program, while stressing that the government should focus on tackling the transition from temporary status to permanent immigration.
Asylum
As for refugees, the Liberals promised they would work with employers across the country to welcome 2,000 skilled refugees to fill labor shortages in needed areas, including healthcare. In addition, they want to double down on their commitment to Afghan refugees and raise the resettlement target from 20,000 to 40,000.
The Canadian immigration plan for 2022-2024
The next major event to watch is the release of the Immigration Plan 2022-2024. This plan will announce IRCC’s immigration targets for the next 3 years, the number of immigrants will be allocated into groups (economic, family, refugee and humanitarian) for provinces and territories.
The announcement will be made by March 2022 at the latest. The Liberals will most likely stay committed to their plan to increase immigration beyond 400,000 newcomers each year.
Around that time, we will also receive notification of the spending budget of 2022 on new immigration policies, programs and projects that are being pursued by the government. For example, the 2021 Budget said the government intends to invest nearly $430 million in IT infrastructure upgrades to improve the way immigration applications are handled.
The French-speaking immigrants
The Liberals also promised to support French-speaking immigrants in both Quebec and many other provinces in Canada. However, they did not provide many details about their “ambitious national strategy”.
