Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper is planning to reform Canada’s immigration programs to ensure the economic future of the country remains secure.
“In the months to come, our government will undertake major transformations to position Canada for growth over the next generation,” he said.
One of the anticipated transformations appears to deal with Canada’s immigration programs.
Harper said that his government will ensure that economic and labour force needs are the central focus of Canadian immigration programs, all the while ensuring that family reunification and humanitarian immigration objectives are met.
