Recent government-commissioned polling data reveals that 54% of Canadians believe immigration levels remain excessive, even after federal authorities announced a significant reduction in permanent resident targets for 2025. A survey conducted by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) reveals that, despite plans to decrease immigration numbers from 485,000 in 2024 to 395,000 in 2025, public sentiment remains cautious. The findings come amid growing national discourse on housing affordability and social infrastructure capacity, marking a notable shift in Canadian attitudes toward immigration policy.
