CILA recommended a new council to reform Canada's business immigration strategy

The Canadian Immigration Lawyers Association has published a comprehensive report recommending the creation of a Canadian Business Immigration Council to reshape how the country approaches entrepreneur and investor immigration. The report, titled "Engine of Growth," addresses Canada's declining business immigration numbers—from 30,000 annual admissions to just 500 under current plans. CILA's proposal centers on adaptive governance rather than fixed policies, calling for collaboration among government, private-sector experts, and immigrant communities. The council would monitor program performance in real time and adjust strategies based on evidence, moving away from past practices of launching initiatives only to abandon them when expectations are not immediately met.
