Canada- PEI Dominates Ontario In Welcoming New Permanent Residents

21 Jan 2019

Prince Edward Island may be the smallest province of Canada, but it carries a significant punch when it happens to immigration.

Immigration Statistics of Canadian Provinces

The recent figures reveal that P.E.I province welcomes the current permanent residents compared to any Canadian province population, at 1.37%. This percentage is higher the national median of 0.87%.

Canadian government data on current Canada permanent residents for the one year (Dec 2017 to Nov 2018) presents which provinces are getting in attracting notable levels of new immigrants.

The only another province to obtain near the P.E.I number is Saskatchewan, which welcomed current permanent residents adding 1.32% of its population in the assigned period.

Neighboring province Manitoba (1.1%) was the only another Canadian province to break the barrier of 1 percent.

With the federal government of Canada hatching an enthusiastic plan to receive complete levels of immigration up near 1% of the population by the year 2021, it is obvious which Canadian provinces have the room for progress.

While P.E.I storms ahead, the other 03 Atlantic provinces of Canada make up the 03 of the last 04 places in the percentages. Rock bottom is Newfoundland & Labrador, with current permanent residents totaling simply 0.29% of its population.

New Brunswick, while, recorded a number of 0.59%, and Nova Scotia 0.62%. This set of data is why the Canada government is looking to produce higher new immigrants to the region via the Atlantic Immigration Pilot.

The common federal-provincial program is assumed to see as plenty as 4,000 current immigrants per year come in the Atlantic region by the year 2020.

While, the other member of the last 04 is the Quebec which is a French-speaking province, which welcomed current permanent residents totaling 0.61% of its population in the assigned period.

Quebec province sets its levels of immigration targets and maintains its own Economic Class intake.
