The provincial government announced on Friday that cuts to immigration numbers won't be as severe as previously thought. The federal government has agreed to add back one-thousand economic immigration spaces for 2025, including nearly 3-hundred humanitarian refugees. That's a change of heart from mid-January when the federal government announced it would cut in HALF the number of immigrants permitted to settle in this province. Sarah Stoodley is the provincial minister of Immigration, Population growth and Skills.
