Quebec has started public consultations to develop an immigration strategy for 2024-2027. The strategy seeks to address labour shortages, promote economic growth, and preserve the French language. The consultations will take three weeks and involve considering 77 briefs and hearing from around 70 experts and organizations. Business groups support increased immigration to the province. Last year, Quebec welcomed 68,720 new permanent residents, and by the end of July 2023, the province had received another 33,550. If the trend continues, an estimated 57,514 new permanent residents will settle in Quebec by the end of 2023.
