Abstract
This paper explores the past success and current situation of the private refugee sponsorship program as an aspect of Canada's immigration policy, with particular reference to Manitoba. It describes the local background and advantages that have given rise to this key component of the present immigration reality in the province. It details the stresses and the problems that the program now faces, and the fragility undermining reliance on it as a significant source of future immigration to Manitoba. Finally, the paper suggests ways to undergird the program and make it an important piece of an immigration strategy that focuses not only on attracting immigrants, but also on retaining them within the province.
