CTV News — What to expect from Canada’s new immigration rules in 2026
Canada is set to tighten immigration rules and accept fewer new residents, students and temporary workers in 2026. The ongoing cuts are a major shift for the country, which had been boosting immigration levels for years. First introduced in late 2024 and updated again in November, the new caps and lower targets are meant to reduce Canada’s unemployment rate, address housing affordability and ease pressures on public services like healthcare. While Canada will continue slashing the number of new permanent and temporary residents it admits in 2026, new priorities could also give an edge to skilled workers, applicants who speak French and those who have Canadian experience.
The Globe and Mail — Ottawa reverses course on immigration programs for caregivers
The federal government is pausing an immigration stream that allows caregivers to settle permanently in the country, a departure from decades of dedicated pathways that granted permanent residency to those who look after the young and elderly. Starting in 2026, Ottawa is suspending the Home Care Worker Immigration pilot projects, saying that demand for the program far exceeded spaces available to grant applicants permanent residency. Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada said in a statement to The Globe and Mail that it would focus on processing existing applications and has no plans to reopen the program – which has an annual intake cap of 5,500 people – in 2026.
CTV News — Here are some of the new laws and rules coming into effect in Canada in 2026
New laws and rules that come into effect in Canada in 2026 include a middle-class tax cut, caps on certain bank fees and changes to citizenship eligibility requirements for “Lost Canadians” born abroad. Here’s what you need to know about Canada’s newest rules and regulations. At least 115,000 so-called “Lost Canadians” who were born outside the country could be eligible for citizenship under new rules that are expected to go into effect in 2026.

Radio-Canada — Plus d’argent exigé pour les étudiants étrangers
Dès le 1ᵉʳ janvier, les exigences financières sont rehaussées pour les étrangers souhaitant venir étudier au Québec. 24 617 $, c’est la somme minimale qu’un étudiant étranger doit désormais avoir dans son compte pour venir étudier au Québec, contre 15 508 $ en 2025. À cela s’ajoutent les frais de transport aller-retour à partir de son pays d’origine et les droits de scolarité. Et il devra prouver qu’il possède bien cet argent. Le ministère de l’Immigration, de la Francisation et de l’Intégration explique cette hausse de près de 10 000 $ par la volonté de mieux aligner les critères d’admission sur « les conditions économiques actuelles au Québec ».

The Gazette — International students will need an additional $10,000 in their bank account to study in Quebec
The Quebec government is requiring international students to have $10,000 more in the bank in order to study in the province. Starting Jan. 1, international students will require at least $24,617 in their bank account for one single person, be it a minor or an adult over 18. That’s up from $15,508 for a single student over 18, and $7,756 for a student age 18 and under. It’s the Legault government’s latest restriction on the province’s higher education system, after imposing tuition hikes for out-of-province and international students, French-language proficiency requirements for non-Quebec undergraduates, and caps on international student admissions.
