Immigrant labor is playing a part in keeping Canada on the move during the COVID-19 pandemic
Robust immigration will need to continue after, according to federal Immigration Minister Marco Mendicino. He said immigration is essentially about citizens joining to build a stable country and will endure long after the crisis is gone. As the COVID-19 crisis was forcing travel bans and closing borders in March 2020, Mendicino had shared the Liberals’ three-year plan for immigration. The record high admissions were 341,000 permanent residents in 2020, 351,000 the next year, and 361,000 in the next.

Skilled foreign workers are needed to keep the economy healthy in Canada. There is an ongoing “skills mismatch” because there is a shortage of younger Canadian citizens training for high-demand jobs. As over nine million Canadians retire during this decade, immigration will help with the economic challenges of paying social security payments, healthcare, and other services for the retired community. Mendicino said the pandemic had spotlighted the importance of the newcomer’s work in Canada. He said we could not support the front-line workers without immigration, and we couldn’t feed Canadians at an affordable price without the immigrants.
