Canada’s federal government has maintained strict caps on temporary residents, including international students and foreign workers, aiming to reduce their share of the population to 5% by 2027. This policy shift, implemented through sharply lower admission targets of 385,000 for 2026, has produced three consecutive quarterly population declines totaling over 234,000 people since mid-2025, according to Statistics Canada data through April 2026. The resulting contraction in non-permanent residents—the primary driver of prior growth—has already generated the first annual drop on record and positions 2026 for an even steeper net loss absent any reversal in targets or inflows. Trader consensus at 85% for the largest annual decline reflects these sustained official restrictions and their measurable demographic effects.
