Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada is the department of the Canadian government in charge of aspects relevant to immigration, refugees, and citizenship in Canada. In 1994, the department was created after a reorganization.
The Department of Citizenship and Immigration Act outlines the mandate of Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada. The Citizenship Act of 1977 and any subsequently passed changes are administered by the Minister of IRCC. When it comes to the execution of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act, the Minister of IRCC and the Minister of Public Safety team up.
To protect the health, safety, and security of Canadians, IRCC has the duty to conduct “the screening of possible permanent and temporary residents.” The IRCC is also in charge of issuing and maintaining Canadian passports and other travel documents that help Canadian citizens, permanent residents, and protected persons travel.
The IRCC will keep promoting programs and services aimed at assisting immigrants to successfully integrate and fully live the Canadian way of life, boosting their capacity to contribute to the development of better communities as part of its ongoing efforts to create a “stronger Canada” in collaboration with its partners. Instill in them, without regard to their ethnicity or religious beliefs, the ideals, obligations, and responsibilities of new Canadians. Additionally, it strives to improve its immigration and humanitarian policies and programs.
The goal of IRCC is to contribute to making Canada stronger through immigration in order to maintain its well-known humanitarian initiatives on a global scale. The vision is to firmly establish the objective of establishing a predictable economic agenda as well as its social and cultural environment.
The word “Immigration” in the department’s name refers to Canada’s attempts to create and uphold an immigration policy that benefits both Canadians and newcomers. Most Canadians may trace their foreign heritage back a few generations because of the progressive, open immigration policy that Canada has historically had. Immigration is anticipated to continue to play a significant part in Canada’s future as it faces a demographic crisis and seeks to have robust economic growth and security.
There are two main elements that are reflected in the ‘Refugees’ section of IRCC. First, the number of refugees worldwide has increased as a result of recent instability and conflict in various parts of the world. These people, often in incredibly difficult circumstances, have been displaced from their homes. As of June 2015, according to the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, there were 60 million refugees worldwide.
The second thing to take into account is how quickly and compassionately the current administration has dealt with this problem. Trudeau and other prominent Liberal Party members insisted that the best course of action for Canada and international refugees would be for Canada to increase the number of refugees settled in the country and provide additional resources to ensure security and opportunities for refugees over the long term. This position remained throughout the 2015 Canadian federal election campaign.
The fact that it offers a road to citizenship for people who make the important life decision to immigrate to Canada is one of the distinguishing features of Canadian immigration law. A humiliating and emotional milestone in an immigrant’s life is frequently obtaining Canadian citizenship and joining the Canadian family.
IRCC still places a high priority on citizenship, just as it did before the division’s name change.
