Strong Performance in Key Sectors Boosts Growth

Gold and the energy sector have played a significant role in driving Canada's economic growth this week. The country's mining and energy industries have experienced a surge in activity, contributing to a positive outlook for the economy.

Immigration Levels Set to Rise

In response to a slowdown in immigration due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Canadian government has announced plans to increase immigration levels for 2021. This move is expected to boost the economy by providing a steady stream of skilled workers and entrepreneurs.

Federal Government's Immigration Goals

The federal government has pledged to make up for the pandemic-related immigration slowdown by welcoming a significant number of newcomers. This increase in immigration is seen as a key factor in driving economic growth and addressing labor shortages in specific sectors.

Long-Term Immigration Impact

Since 2005, Canada has welcomed over 39 million new citizens, with India being the largest source of immigrants. This influx has contributed to the country's diverse and vibrant population, fostering innovation and economic success.
