A comprehensive analysis identifies Toronto as hosting nearly 50% of Canada's undocumented immigrants, with an estimated 250,000-300,000 individuals residing without legal status.

According to recent data, Canada's total undocumented population exceeds 600,000 nationwide, with major urban centers serving as primary settlement hubs.

The study, which examined immigrant proportions in Census Metropolitan Areas alongside sanctuary policies and community services, reveals that Toronto, Vancouver, and Montreal lead the country in undocumented residents.

While these individuals contribute significantly to essential sectors like construction, hospitality, and caregiving, they face considerable challenges, including limited healthcare access, employment exploitation, and deportation risks.
