Canada has absorbed new immigrants this year. In 2021, nearly 160,000 students successfully obtained the identity of the Maple Leaf Card. Some policy experts are worried that the explosive growth of the immigrant population will have potential impact on medical, housing and labor markets.

However, the immigration minister Shin insisted that Canada needs more new immigrants to solve the problem of future labor shortage and population aging.

In an interview with the Canadian news agency, Minister Fraser said: "If we do not continue to increase the power of new immigrants and bring more labor population and young families into Canada, then our problems will not be short. We will not be short. Pay attention to whether the school and hospital can afford it. "

In November last year, the Federal Liberal Party announced a new immigration plan. By 2025, Canada will recruit 500,000 immigrants each year.

In 2022, Canada recorded 431,645 new immigrants and became permanent residents.

Ted, a professor of politics at the University of Politics, said that the Canadian immigration plan will be much higher than the immigration rate of similar countries such as Australia.

He said that this is not a bad thing in itself, but he believes that improving the level of immigration is not a correct way to solve the problem of current labor shortage.

McDonald's said: "I think that if the policy is consistent with the shortage of structural labor markets in the continuous existence, it will be more meaningful."

At the same time, he said that the reason for improving the level of immigration is obvious: the birth rate of Canada is declining.

According to the Canadian Bureau of Statistics, Canada's birth rate is reduced to the lowest historical level, with an average of 1.4 children in 2020. If a large number of immigrants are absorbed, this will be far below the rate of 2.1 children needed to maintain the population. nature

This does not prevent others from worrying that more new immigrants will put pressure on housing burden and other long -term problems (such as medical and medical care).

The former senior official of the Immigration Department Andrew Griffis () () said: "I did not see the impact of these immigration targets on the burden and availability of housing, and there was no additional pressure on medical treatment."

But the immigration minister Fraser said many new permanent residents have lived in Canada.

For example, in 2021, 157,000 international students became permanent residents.

The Immigration Minister said: "This is not to say that 500,000 new immigrants suddenly came to Canada."

The Immigration Minister also said that the EE immigration fast channel system will change huge changes in spring, so it can choose the required immigrant talents according to the Canadian industry and region.

He said this would help reduce some pressures in medical and housing.
