On November 6, 2023, Immigration Minister Marc Miller celebrated the 11th National Francophone Immigration Week, emphasizing the value of Francophone immigrants to Canada's cultural, demographic, and economic richness.
The government recently set new admission targets for French-speaking immigrants outside Quebec, aiming for 6% in 2024, 7% in 2025, and 8% in 2026.
These targets reflect Canada's commitment to strengthening Francophone minority communities and supporting labour needs.
The government has been consulting on a new Francophone immigration policy, which will soon be launched under the modernized Official Languages Act.

On November 3, 2023, Social Development Minister of New Brunswick Jill Green voiced concern over rising hate in Canada at a meeting on anti-racism, representing Immigration Minister Arlene Dunn.

The Government pledged to ensure safety for all in Canada, affirming that diversity, inclusion, and human rights are core Canadian values.
The minister stated that all forms of racism, discrimination, and hate, including antisemitism, Islamophobia, and any rhetoric against Jewish, Arab, Israeli, and Palestinian communities, were entirely unacceptable.
