In addition, two proposed ineligibility measures in the Bill would protect the asylum system against sudden increases in claims.

  • Asylum claims made by people more than one year after first arriving in Canada after June 24, 2020, would not be referred to the IRB. This would apply to anyone, including students and temporary residents, regardless of whether they left the country and returned;
  • Asylum claims from people who enter Canada from the United States along the land border between ports of entry and make a claim after 14 days would not be referred to the IRB;

  • Authorize Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) to share client information, such as identity, status and immigration documentation with federal, provincial and territorial partners through signed information-sharing agreements;
  • Make it easier for IRCC to share client information between different IRCC programs (e.g. using permanent residence application data to process citizenship applications);
  • Allow for regulations to be developed to share client information across federal departments for the purpose of cooperation.
Amend the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act to strengthen control over immigration documents for the public interest., These new authorities, which could be used for matters of public health or national security, would allow Canada to:

  • Cancel, suspend or change groups of immigration documents immediately;
  • Pause the acceptance of new applications;
  • Pause or cancel the processing of applications already in the inventory.

Will this be applied to those who case is already referred to IRB or new asylum seekers only?

Based on the last section, it looks like it's retroactive.

And why did the Government implement these changes ?

Outright abuse / manipulation of the system

No one ever mentions anything about that .
Either people giving advice or those commenting

It can be plain as day , and people nonchalantly claim asylum , abuse the system , then complain

That is not for refugee. It is for all immigration programs.

I agree with you having re-read this. It's a broad statement.
