IRCC will modernize Canada’s immigration system
Marco Mendicino, Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship (IRCC), has emphasized the need to modernize Canada’s immigration system so that future public health crises don’t threaten the economy the way COVID-19 did.
He also highlighted the contributions of immigrants into the country and for the Canadian economy, and the need for transformation and modernization of the system, so that it can accommodate the great demands that are placed on it.
According to the Minister, the new system will be a “shift in the paradigm in the way we talk about immigration,” that will get rid of discriminatory practices like “ranking immigrants one against the other”.

Ottawa is going to help applicants with expired COPR
As everyone is aware.
Applicants cannot travel to Canada on expired documents.
So, the Government of Canada will help those who are outside Canada with expired or expiring Confirmation of Permanent Residence (COPR) who couldn’t travel to Canada due to travel restrictions related to COVID-19.
As of June 21, 2021, applicants are exempt from travel restrictions, no matter what date COPR was issued.
However, if applicants have an expired COPR, they are not able to travel to Canada until new documents are reissued.
Applicants with a COPR and permanent resident visa that are valid until October 1, 2021, are expected to come to Canada before their documents expire.
