Nearly Half of Canada’s Population will be Immigrant by 2036

A comprehensive report has been released by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) which concludes that nearly half of the population of Canada will be immigrant by the year 2036.

As per the information mentioned in the study which was released by Statistics Canada, the proportion of immigrant in Canada was nearly 20 per cent in the year 2011 and by the year 2036 it will comprise nearly 30 per cent of the overall population.

Multi-Cultural Society

The study has projected that the country will move ahead to become a culturally diverse one in the future. The majority of the immigrants that will be settling down in Canada will be from Asia by the year 2036.

The percentage of immigrants that will be coming from Europe will be on the decline. It will go down from 31 percent at present to 15 percent in the future. The number of immigrants that are coming from Africa will increase to nearly eleven percent.

When we take a look at the working-age population, the share of the visible minority group will increase from nearly 20% to nearly 40% by the 2036. The main visible minority group in this proportion will be from South Asia, just like it is today. Chinese people will come at the second position.

Groups that will increase rapidly in proportion will be from Philippines, Arab and West Asian groups. Just like it has been in the past, Canada will be a land where many languages are spoken in the future as well.

The first language of nearly 30% of the population living in Canada will be other than English and French. However, these people need to be proficient in one of these two languages in order to be competent in the social, professional and academic life.

As per the economic immigration programs from Canada, the principal applicant need to be proficient either in English or in French. At present nearly 20% of population living in Canada is the one that neither has French or English as their first language.

Canada Implements Lottery System to Reunite Immigrant Families

Canada is in plans to implement a lottery system in place of the first-come, first-served immigration procedure to reunite grandparents and parents.

According to a news update from Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada the change will be implemented to make the immigration system fair for all candidates. In past, a backlog used to get created as the number of people applying for it far outnumbers the number of visas available.

Immigration minister John McCallum said in a statement that they have paid attention to feedbacks from applicants in the past and have taken measures to make the process fair for everyone.

The new process will give equal chance to everyone who has applied to sponsor their parents to come to Canada.

Permanent residents and citizens of Canada who want to sponsor their grandparents and parents will be required to fill an online form between January 3^rd and February 2^nd, 2017 within 30 days.

Once a prospective sponsor has submitted the information in a proper manner, he or she will get a confirmation number. IRCC has stated that duplicate entries will be removed. Prospective sponsor should understand that by submitting the online form they are only expressed their will, they have not applied for sponsorship as such.

After the 30 days period, 10,000 applications will be randomly picked by IRCC and these people will be invited to submit the completed application form for the Parent and Grandparent program. Applicants who are picked will get 90 days to submit their completed application form.

Many Visa-Exempt Travelers to Canada Still Surprised by New Electronic Travel Authorization Requirement

Some visitors who are coming to Canada are still facing problems with the Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA). This is an electronic document which is required from the majority of the visa-exempt visitors coming to Canada.

During the holiday period, many people faced delays in their travel plans or were not able to board the flight because they did not knew about the requirement of eTA. This electronic authorization was first introduced in August 2015, and it became compulsory for most of the visitors who can travel to Canada without a visa.

It looks like all the potential travelers were not fully informed about the new requirement in regulation. As per the new requirement, a visa exempt traveler is required to complete an online form and pay a fee of CAD $7.

The eTA is connected with the passport of the traveler and remains valid for a period of five years or till the time passport is valid. Travelers who are coming from United States of America or those people who require a Temporary Resident Visa (TRV) are not required to apply for eTA before they enter Canada.

In the majority of the cases, it takes only a few minutes to issue eTA. However, there have been incidences where it took significantly more than this. A British comedian went to his social media account to speak about the delay this new requirement had caused him and ultimately, he was not able to attend his stand-up show in Toronto.

Holidays were spoiled

It’s been almost a year and a half since the eTA was introduced and many travelers still do not have any information about the new regulation. A resident of Nova Scotia wanted to celebrate the Christmas and New Year with his father, who lives in England, but he was not aware of the new regulation.

When you travel to a new country, whether as a visitor or to reside their permanently, you cannot take anything for granted. You need to be prepared on all matters pertaining to your visit.
