The Canadian Federal Minister of Immigration recently stated that visa services in China, India, and Brazil will continue to improve to meet the travel needs of local residents. He also pointed out that economic immigration will be a key focus, but it will not affect the quota for family reunification immigration, nor will it change Canada's commitment to continue accepting refugees.
We are currently at a critical moment for implementing immigration policy reforms to ensure that immigration policies can meet Canada's needs. Ottawa's new policy report proposes a new model for economic immigration, which will be implemented in early 2015, aimed at attracting the skilled personnel needed for Canada's economy and enabling them to quickly find employment after arriving in Canada. Additionally, the government will reform the investment immigration program to allow immigrant investors to contribute their talents and experience to Canadian society.
The Minister emphasized that reforms to economic immigration will not affect the quota for family reunification immigration, nor will it change Canada's continued commitment to accept refugees. Economic, family, and humanitarian capabilities constitute acomprehensive immigration program in Canada. Every year, one-tenth of the world's refugees settle in Canada, and the government may consider expanding refugee resettlement. Economic category immigrants are the cornerstone of Canada's success, but without family companionship, it is still difficult to settle and thrive. Therefore, the government welcomes the spouses and children of immigrants to settle in Canada together.
