Impact of Biden’s coming to power on Immigration to Canada
An analysis by The Canadian Press of the effects on Canada of Joe Biden’s coming to power points out that his electoral victory will have a wide-ranging impact on Canada in the field of immigration. Donald Trump made extensive revisions to US immigration policy, which has increased the number of asylum-seekers illegally crossing the Canada-US border into Canada through the loopholes in the Canada-US Safe Third Country Agreement. Canada has always hoped to renegotiate the agreement. The analysis says now Canada believes that Biden could be a more willing partner in negotiating the agreement. Furthermore, Trump’s immigration policy has made it more difficult for people from certain countries to enter the US, leading to a sharp rise in the number of foreign nationals immigrating to Canada. However, Biden may reverse this situation to avoid the outflow of talent from the US.
