✅The BC Building Trades (BCBT) union is urging the federal government to reform immigration policies to address severe labor shortages in the construction sector. Executive Director Brynn Bourke emphasized the need for skilled foreign workers alongside local labor. BCBT criticized the reliance on temporary foreign workers (TFWs), who make up 4.7% of BC's construction workforce, compared to the national average of 2.1%. The union claims this practice undermines wages and employment rights. BC requires 52,600 more construction workers by 2032, with 30% expected to come through immigration. The Federal Skilled Trades Program remains underutilized, bringing only 270 workers to BC from 2019 to 2023. . Source: www.immigration.ca . .

✅Canadian citizenship rules for those born abroad to Canadian parents could be delayed until December. The Ontario Superior Court ruled last year that 2009 restrictions limiting citizenship by descent were unconstitutional and mandated changes by June 19. However, the court extended the deadline to August 9, with a hearing on August 1 to consider a further extension to December 2024. Bill C-71, introduced in May, aims to grant automatic citizenship to those affected by the 2009 change. The bill also proposes that Canadian citizens born abroad must live in Canada for three years before passing on citizenship rights to their children. . Source: www.ctvnews.ca . .

👉President Joe Biden has announced a new policy granting legal status and work permits to over 500,000 undocumented spouses of US citizens, provided they have lived in the US for at least 10 years. This move aims to make the immigration system fairer and reduce family separations. Eligible individuals can apply for permanent residency over three years. The announcement coincides with the 12th anniversary of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program. While supporters praise the policy for its humanitarian impact, critics argue it overextends executive authority and may encourage illegal immigration.✅ .

✅The Standing Senate Committee on Social Affairs, Science and Technology has recommended that Immigration Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) stop issuing closed work permits. Initially designed as a "last resort" for employers, the Temporary Foreign Worker Program (TFWP) has become essential to the Canadian labor market. The committee’s report suggests that eliminating closed work permits could address systemic issues. Employers using the TFWP must obtain a Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) to prove no Canadians are available for the job, then support foreign workers with housing, healthcare, and fair wages. .

✅Immigration Minister Marc Miller has proposed Bill C-71 to amend Canadian citizenship laws, enabling children of Canadian citizens born abroad to pass on their citizenship to their own children. This change addresses the "Lost Canadians" issue, restoring citizenship rights previously lost or unattained due to outdated laws. The bill requires parents born outside Canada to have lived in the country for at least three years before their child's birth or adoption to transfer citizenship. The proposed legislation aims to ensure fairness and inclusivity in citizenship, impacting future generations. . Source: www.immigtoronto.com .

✅Canada is introducing a pathway to citizenship for undocumented migrants while expediting deportation processes. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau emphasized the need to support those without official status, highlighting ongoing efforts by Immigration Minister Marc Miller. This initiative, set to be part of a Citizenship Bill announcement, aims to protect vulnerable individuals from exploitation. The move follows advocacy from groups like the Canadian Council for Refugees. Estimates suggest 20,000 to 500,000 undocumented migrants reside in Canada. Previous programs, like the Guardian Angels policy during COVID-19, have already provided pathways for thousands. . Source: www.immigration.ca .

✅Immigration Minister Marc Miller is anticipated to introduce a citizenship bill on Thursday, aiming to extend citizenship to certain children born outside Canada. Under the previous law altered in 2009 by the Conservative government, Canadian parents born abroad couldn't transmit citizenship unless their child was born in Canada. Amendments in 1977 and 2009 also revoked Canadian citizenship from many born abroad, termed "Lost Canadians." Last year, the Ontario Superior Court ruled the existing system unconstitutional, prompting Ottawa to address the issue by June 19. The method of determining individuals' significant ties to Canada for citizenship remains unclear. . Source: www.canada.ca .
