Back in March, Immigration Minister Marc Miller laid out the beginnings of a plan to control Canada’s runaway population growth.
The share of temporary residents in the population, then 6.2 per cent, would be eased to 5 per cent over three years. The group – a mix of study and work permit holders, their family members and asylum claimants – would need to drop about 20 per cent from 2.5 million, he estimated.
How’s progress so far? Nonexistent.
