Bill status
Bill C-12 was introduced in October 2025 and requires further review and debate in Parliament before it can become law. Public and expert opposition continues to call for the bill to be withdrawn or amended to remove the problematic immigration provisions.
I doubt we will see much movement on C-12 until after the fall budget release. I imagine the liberals are pulling up the stakes (and negotiating tactics) to ensure there isn't a no. Confidence vote on the budget. Might mean some fancy negotiating (and revising C-12 might be a carrot) to prop up opposition support for the budget.
This government is blaming immigrants for the mistakes they're making, one after the other. More than 9 immigration ministers have already passed. Inflation has risen to 2.4%, food, housing, etc. They want to say that 50,000 immigrants on the waiting list for humanitarian and compassionate programs are the reason. This is pathetic. Students, workers, and immigrants drive the economy in this country. In short, I believe this government won't last even a year.
So, 50,000 people waiting for H&C aren't inmigrant. They are ineligible applicant/ failed refugee claimant/ visitors hoping for an exemption from an immigration system has already determined ineligible. The options for any government (and believe me, a conservative government would be looking at much harsher options) are limited and the voting public (you know, the only ones that really matter to political parties) are demanding government action to revise immigration numbers down. The public's tolerance to programs like H&C, rejected refugee claims or parents deciding Canada is a better choice to live than visit is at its limit (7 in 10 want something done) and they're the ones the government needs to appease. You might feel it's pathetic, but that's the reality. Any government will have to do something, sooner than later, and show they are taking the electorates demands seriously.
It would become effect on final reading in the House of Commons. Who knows when that will happen.
Unfortunately, you're right. Politicians only care about votes and staying in power, regardless of justice or compassion. Canadian immigrants now want to close the door to other immigrants after having entered many times through the back door. However, Canada has a maintenance debt. The fewer people to share the debt, the more taxes will be collected. I support immigration for people who want to contribute to Canada's growth. The government should invest in intelligence and security to triage these processes. However, I oppose closing the program.
I don't disagree. Those already in process should have applications vetted for security, criminality and medical and a decision made based on that. Others have argued that it doesn't provide the correct skill sets needed, but the option is there to train and educate these people to gain those skills. Otherwise, things like H&C need to be shut down and prevent further abuse.
Guys, I got my AIP in July 24, nothing since then, at the time my lawyer recommended me to not apply for OWP, because the PR and OWP had the same process time.
One year and change after...here I'm stuck, no PR or OWP, my question is....
Not having a status...if I get the temporary OWP.. would I qualify for the children benefit (CBB)?
