Canada is on track to exceed its immigration goal of granting permanent residency to more than 430,000 people in 2022, Immigration Minister Sean Fraser said on Wednesday.

Fraser, speaking to reporters in Vancouver, also announced a plan to hire up to 1,250 workers to tackle a record-high number of immigration applicants.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s government has relied on immigration to boost the Canadian economy since coming to power in 2015, setting an annual target of about 1% of the country’s population. By end of July this year, Canada had added more than 275,000 permanent residents, Fraser said on Wednesday.

With tighter border measures due to the coronavirus pandemic last year, Canada focused efforts on temporary residents already in the country to achieve a target of granting 401,000 foreigners permanent residency.
