As part of a parliamentary motion, Sean Fraser, the immigration minister, was assigned to present a proposal. The purpose is to increase the number of pathways to permanent residency available to temporary residents. A 120-day deadline for Fraser’s response is outside of the House of Commons’ sitting schedule, which ends on May 11.
The House rules and practice allow for the substance of a bill to only be made public after the bill has been introduced. Read a first time,” wrote Heather Bradley from the Office of the Speaker. In the event that the government constructs a plan based on motion M-44. If these reforms are incorporated into law, these reforms will broaden immigration paths for temporary residents.
The shadow immigration minister for the Conservative Party, Jasraj Singh Hallan, said the plan is likely to be introduced as soon as the House reconvenes next week.
House of Commons meetings are scheduled to resume on 19 September, the Queen’s funeral day. During routine business on September 20, NDP lawmaker and immigration critic Jenny Kwan will present Fraser’s statement to the media.
On September 12, an IRCC representative told media News that the Government of Canada was working on responding to Private Member’s Motion 44 (M-44). Our goal is to contribute to the acceleration of the process of converting newcomers to permanent citizens in order to meet Canada’s economic needs and support our growth. Discussions are already underway to meet these needs.
Library of Parliament representatives claims that private members’ proposals, such as Motion 44, can’t be enforce. Accordingly, Fraser does not have to answer. Regardless of this, Andrew Griffith, a previous chief general of IRCC, guaranteed that legislators ought to continuously adhere to their cutoff times since neglecting to do so is humiliating. There are no huge contrasts between the proposition and what the Liberals are now endeavoring to do, and the secondaries to the move are all from a similar ideological group as Fraser, the Liberal Party.
According to Griffith, it basically confirms what the administration has previously announced it will do.
During an interview on June 21, Fraser expressed happiness with his endorsement of the motion.
Randeep Sarai, a member of parliament for Surrey Centre in British Columbia, introduced resolution 44 on May 11. Calling on Fraser to create and publish a plan to accomplish these objectives. “Develop pathways for international students and temporary foreign employees to become permanent residents” was Fraser’s mandate letter from the prime minister.
The following six motion points are expected to be addressed by Fraser:
- Make in-Canada work experience more valuable for economic immigration programs
- Analyze other federal immigration programs’ data;
- Choose immigrants based on ongoing labor shortages and labor market information.
- Retaining immigrants in smaller communities and encouraging French-speaking immigration from outside Quebec.
- Work on addressing regional economic agendas and changing labor market needs more quickly.
- Healthcare, agriculture, services, transportation, children, and manufacturing are among the most important jobs and necessities.
