15,000 New Immigrants Made Their Way To Canada In November 2020

When lockdowns and quarantine were put in place to help keep the COVID-19 disease at bay and stop its spread among people, countries like Canada had to deal with a lower economy and a lot of other trials. The movement of people was also curtailed which made getting things running a whole lot more difficult. There were businesses that had to close that also meant more people becoming unemployed in the midst of a pandemic. However, countries have been able to create protocols that would make sure that the economy went back to its former glory and things would become normal like before.

 

Canada has been working really hard to make sure that its citizens are kept safe from the disease without having to sacrifice the economy. And the economy of this country is highly reliant on immigrants as they are the ones that help businesses and bring in more transactions and ventures. Immigration has been definitely hit hard by the pandemic and it is a good thing that Canada is now slowly recovering.

 

Bringing the numbers up

 

According to the government of Canada, the country was able to bring in around 15,000 immigrants for November 2020. This is the third month in a row that Canada was able to achieve this despite the pandemic still happening. As per the Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada, there were 15,300 total new individuals with permanent resident visas just for November 2020, which is just about the same number for September and October 2020. This number may be quite big already but it is still a long way off from the usual numbers that the country has been able to bring in when there was still no pandemic.

 

The usual number that Canada is able to have for new immigrants would be 25,000 to 35,000 per month. However, with the lockdowns and travel restrictions that were put in place last March 2020, the numbers dwindled and it is a good thing that the country is now able to start bringing the numbers back up again.

 

More numbers for Canada immigration

 

From January to November 2020, there were around 174,000 new immigrants who made their way to Canada. This is the first time that the country has only been able to record new immigrants that were below 200,000 in total. The last time that this happened was back in 1999. To see the difference, the 2019 number of new immigrants in Canada was around 341,000. This surely shows just how huge the difference is for 2020. However, looking at it in a positive light, it is a good thing that Canada was still able to bring in new immigrants in the midst of this difficult time.
