CTV News — Racialized immigrants report lower well-being in Canada, study shows

A new study suggests Canada’s high global ranking on life satisfaction masks important gaps, especially for racialized immigrants, who report significantly lower well-being than Canadian-born, non-racialized residents.The research, conducted by the Population Health Research Institute, a joint institute of McMaster University and Hamilton Health Sciences, draws on data from more than 8,000 adults and uses the Cantril Ladder, a global scale where people rate their life from 0 (worst possible) to 10 (best possible).

CTV News — Canada released new study permit targets for 2026, here’s why an expert says the numbers are ‘unhelpful’

The Canadian government has released its international student targets for next year, but experts say more than “numbers in isolation” is needed to create an effective intake system. Under the federal government’s international student cap — introduced in 2024 to slow the growth of Canada’s temporary population — the Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) sets an annual target for study permit applications.

City News — Asylum seekers: Legault orders Carney to intervene with his minister

François Legault is urging the Prime Minister of Canada, Mark Carney, to “intervene” with his Minister of Immigration in the case of asylum seekers.

City News — Nearly half of immigrants say temporary foreign workers fill the jobs Canadians don’t want: OMNI-Leger poll

The federal government is aiming to slash Canada’s temporary resident population, promising additional changes to the Temporary Foreign Worker Program (TFWP), which requires employers to submit a labour market impact assessment (LMIA) before they can hire a foreign worker. Ottawa already tweaked the program, for example, by imposing caps in regions with high unemployment and limiting the percentage of temporary foreign workers that can make up an employer’s workforce.

The Conversation — Dependants? Why Canada should recognize migrant spouses and partners with more accuracy

What comes to mind when you hear the word “dependant?” A child relying on a parent, or an elderly family member needing care? In Canada’s immigration system, the term is applied much more broadly than that. It includes all spouses and common-law partners of immigrants or principal applicants, regardless of whether they rely financially on their significant other or not. According to Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada’s (IRCC) current definition, a dependant is “a spouse, common-law partner or dependent child of a permanent resident or principal applicant.”
