On July 18, 2022, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada released Anti-Racism Strategy 2.0 for 2021-2024.
The report presents a more integrated view of the anti-racism initiatives that have recently been completed and are presently underway.
This version of our Strategy provides a more solid structure when compared to the Government of Canada's and IRCC's Anti-Racism efforts over the previous several years.
The Strategy’s goal is to create a model for system change that includes practical, take-action steps as well as a monitoring framework, which will lead to greater momentum for the Department's Anti-Racism efforts and a long-term culture shift.

Despite several statements made by the Immigration Minister, Sean Fraser, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) could not deal with the large numbers of immigration applications.
The immigration backlog covers all applications submitted to IRCC, from citizenship to visas to permanent residency requests.
The file of citizenship applications alone is 444,792 long, with the majority of the list (1.7 million) being for temporary residence status.
In total, there are 2.7 million people waiting for IRCC to process their immigration applications. The backlog has doubled since the last year and no feasible solutions were introduced by IRCC so far.

On July 28, 2022, the Government of Canada updated the guidance for the multiple entry temporary resident visa (TRV) for parents and grandparents.
According to the update, super visa holders’ each entry to Canada should be for a duration of up to 5 years.
The super visa is a 10-year multiple-entry TRV that is open to eligible applicants for up to 10 years and has authorized stays of up to 5 years for each entry.
The changes to the program came into force on July 4, 2022, and were made in compliance with the authority granted in subsection 15(4) of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act (IRPA).

Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) will conduct Express Entry draws for candidates based on labour market objectives in the last quarter of 2022 and the first quarter of 2023.
The Department is developing plans to engage with various stakeholders to provide new categories in Express Entry.
Bill C-19 enables the immigration minister to invite Express Entry applicants based on criteria that support regional economic needs.
Instead of relying solely on a candidate's CRS score, IRCC may now conduct invitation rounds based on the candidates' occupation, language or educational level.
