Canada did it! The country made history with 401,000 new immigrants it invited in 2021. Ever since Canada has been founded as a country in 1867, this is the second time the number of immigrants has crossed the 400,000 mark in a year. It’s indeed a tremendous success for Canada immigration.
Canada depends a lot on its immigrants to achieve economic and social growth. The country has an aging population that poses concerns as to filling the job vacancies and taking the country’s economy ahead.

The pandemic had not dimmed the determination of Canada to reach an ambitious number of newcomers in the year 2021. In a major strategic move, Canada immigration prioritized the selection of temporary visa holders in Canada to transition them into Canada PR visa holders.
The country is next aiming at bringing in 411,000 newcomers in 2022. The gradual improvement in the economy is also making it seem quite possible. In fact, the Canadian economy has been coming close to pre-pandemic levels lately.
