Immigration Minister Marc Miller announced Thursday that the federal government will be setting a target for temporary residents for the first time. “In our levels planning we will be including a target in order to reach an adequate volume of temporary residents that we can welcome. As a starting point, we are targeting a decrease in our temporary resident population to five per cent over the next three years,” Miller said.
