Bill C-12 is a federal legislation that amends the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act to give the government more flexibility in managing immigration applications, including the ability to prioritize certain categories of applications such as economic or humanitarian streams and, in some cases, pause or limit the processing of others to better align with Canada’s labour market and system capacity. This bill also aims to improve efficiency, reduce backlogs, and allow faster responses to changing economic and humanitarian needs, though it raises concerns about transparency and fairness since some applicants may experience delays or uncertainty if their category is deprioritized.
