The Prime Minister is sticking with the targets set out late last year by then-immigration minister Marc Miller when he set out a plan for future levels of permanent and non-permanent residents.

But economists who have analyzed immigration statistics say that any reductions would not reflect the true number of temporary residents living here and may mean that pressure on housing and services will not be eased to the extent expected.

Official population figures also fail to capture undocumented migrants who last year Mr. Miller estimated could number about 600,000.

The economists warn that Ottawa is overestimating the number of temporary migrants who leave the country once their visas expire. This could have a serious impact on planning, including for housing demand, they say.

I think this government is clueless!
