Immigration Minister Sean Fraser may increase immigration levels in 2022

In his recent interviews, Canadian Immigration Minister, Sean Fraser told that he is ready to increase immigration levels if there will be such a demand to address labour shortages.

Currently, Canada is experiencing extensive job shortages in many spheres of the economy since fewer immigrants arriving from overseas due to the pandemic.

The Immigrations Levels Plan 2022-2024 is going to be announced by February 10, 2022. In 2022, Canada should admit 411,000 new immigrants but the Minister said that he is “very much open to” inviting even more candidates.
