Canada's federal Immigration Levels Plan for 2026-2028 has sharply reduced new temporary resident arrivals to 385,000 this year, down from prior peaks near 674,000, while stabilizing permanent resident admissions at 380,000. This policy shift, aimed at easing housing and infrastructure pressures by lowering the non-permanent resident share below 5 percent by late 2027, has produced net outflows of temporary workers and international students. Parliamentary Budget Officer projections from February 2026 forecast zero overall population growth for the year as these outflows offset permanent inflows, following the first recorded annual decline in 2025 per Statistics Canada data. Traders pricing "Down" at 61 percent appear to weigh the ongoing adjustment and potential for further quarterly contractions against any offsetting permanent gains or data revisions.
