Canada invests $9.3M in 12 projects to boost Francophone immigration.
Canada is stepping up efforts to strengthen Francophone immigration by investing $9.3 million in 12 new projects. The goal is to support the growth of French-speaking minority communities, address labor needs, and enhance the country's economy. The announcement came from Immigration Minister Rachel Bendayan on International Francophonie Day.
The funding is part of the Francophone Immigration Support Program and will be managed by the Centre for Innovation in Francophone Immigration. The projects will focus on attracting and supporting French-speaking immigrants while helping them settle as permanent residents.
The government aims to promote Francophone communities by making it easier for French-speaking individuals to immigrate. The funding will also be used to gather data to identify and reduce barriers that prevent Francophone immigrants from moving to Canada.
Under the 2025–2027 Immigration Levels Plan, Canada will increase its targets for French-speaking permanent residents outside Quebec. The goal is to reach 8.5% in 2025, 9.5% in 2026, and 10% in 2027. This reflects the government’s commitment to strengthening French-speaking communities across the country.
In 2024, Canada exceeded its goal of admitting 1.21% of Francophone permanent residents outside Quebec by a wide margin. The country welcomed 7.21% of its permanent residents from French-speaking backgrounds, highlighting the growing success of its Francophone immigration strategy.
The Canadian government continues to focus on promoting diversity by encouraging more French-speaking individuals to settle in areas outside Quebec. This not only helps maintain the French language and culture but also addresses labor shortages and boosts the economy.
