Canada sees a 20% surge in foreign traveller rejections at ports of entry

Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) data reveals a 20% increase in foreign travellers turned away at Canadian ports of entry in 2024 compared to the previous year. This surge has ignited a heated debate on federal immigration policies, particularly regarding their impact on the housing supply. July 2024 marked a five-year high in rejected entrants, with a notable rise in non-refugee visa holder rejections. The federal government, facing criticism over immigration targets, has announced plans to tighten policies, including ending pandemic-era practices and implementing stricter rules for temporary foreign workers.
