Immigration Minister Marc Miller holds news conference with Saskatchewan counterpart – May 10, 2024

Immigration Minister Marc Miller speaks with reporters in Montreal at the conclusion of the Forum of Ministers Responsible for Immigration (FMRI). He is joined by his Saskatchewan counterpart Jeremy Harrison, provincial co-chair of the FMRI. Immigration level planning, provincial nominee programs, support for Ukrainian evacuees in Canada and credential recognition were among the topics discussed at the meeting. This is the first gathering of all the immigration ministers since Miller announced Canada would be setting limits on the number of temporary residents as part of its annual immigration targets, starting this fall. The federal government plans to decrease the number of temporary residents to 5 per cent of Canada's population over the next three years. Temporary residents currently make up 6.2 per cent of the population. The number of temporary foreign workers entering Canada in certain sectors is also being reduced.
