Abstract
The article is devoted to the identification of transformational changes in Canada’s migration policy in the current geopolitical and socio-economic conditions. The origins of the formation of the state migration policy of Canada were identified, and statistical indicators on the number of immigrants in Canada in 2000-2020 were analyzed. It is established that in 2023, the vast majority (97.6 %) of Canada’s population growth came from international migration (both permanent and temporary immigration) and the remaining portion (2.4 %) came from natural increase. The structure of the plans for immigration levels in Canada for 2023-2026 is studied. Overall, the Immigration Levels Plan 2024–2026 has permanent resident admissions targets of 485,000 in 2024 and 500,000 in 2025. For 2026, the plan is to stabilize at the 500,000 level. The components of the strategic approach to immigration regulation are summarized; the categories of immigrant admission in Canada, as well as the main state immigration programs are characterized. It is concluded that Canada’s current migration policy is focused mainly on business migration. The author identifies the comprehensive tools for regulating immigration that have been operating in Canada for many years. The author highlights the current trends in the regulation of state migration flows that have emerged over the past few years (active promotion of digital transformation, increased competition for talent, revision of immigration goals in the context of determining certain restrictions). The article contains a proposed list of the main components of Canada’s modern migration policy (focus on long-term economic growth; support for humanitarian traditions; support for Francophone immigration; continued implementation of new digital systems in the field of migration regulation). Conclusions are drawn that it is expedient to further study the current transformational changes in Canada’s migration policy in the context of finding effective measures and instruments for regulating migration flows on the principles of long-term and complexity. Keywords: Canada, immigrants, international migrants, labor market, migration, migration policy, transformation.
