[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Canada set a goal to allow 305,000 immigrants move to Canada in 2016, slightly higher than the previous year. The significance is not only in the number of immigrants but the way the plan breaks down. More importance was placed on refugees and reunification of families. Canada not only committed to resettle 25,000 Syrian refugees by the end of February, but Ottawa tripled the number of refugees to 18,000 who were privately sponsored. In past years, that number was only at 6,000. Ottawa welcomed close to 56,000 refugees in total. To be a part of this welcoming country, contact BecomeACanadian today for immigration information.

John McCallum, Canada’s Immigration Minister, communicated that at the heart of the plan is the tradition and shared conviction of being a “compassionate, open, generous, and welcoming country.” The goal signifies a shift in immigration policy, reuniting families, building the Canadian economy, and holding up the humanitarian tradition of settling refugees and protecting those in need. McCallum noted that this is the largest number of immigrant admissions projected by the Canadian government in our modern era. Immigration will account for the majority of admissions to Canada.
