Canada's Immigration Challenges Amid New Trump Mandate
Join us for an in-depth conversation with Shoshana T. Green, Partner, Green and Spiegel and legal expert in immigration law, as we delve into some of the most pressing topics shaping Canadian immigration today.
We discuss the Prime Minister’s recent statement on systemic exploitation of immigration processes, examining the balance of responsibility between the federal government and “bad actors.” Shoshana also shares her insights on changing public attitudes toward immigration, with 58% of Canadians feeling immigration levels should be curbed, and how her clientele has evolved over the past decade.
Looking ahead, Shoshana offers her predictions on how the government’s revised immigration targets will shape the types of cases and profiles she expects to see. The discussion also touches on the impact of U.S. immigration policies, including Donald Trump’s recent appointment of a border czar to oversee the deportation of millions, and how this may drive more legal immigration to Canada.
Finally, Shoshana breaks down the legal pathways for entering Canada and the challenges faced by those navigating the system.
