Annual immigration statistics have existed in Canada prior to confederation in 1867, and continue into the contemporary era. During this period, the highest annual immigration rate to Canada occurred in 1913, when 400,900 new immigrants accounted for 5.3 percent of the total population,[1][2] while the largest number of immigrants admitted to Canada in single year occurred in 2024, when 483,640 new immigrants accounted for 1.2 percent of the total population.[3][4][5]

Following British and French colonization, what is now Canada has seen four major waves (or peaks) of immigration and settlement of non-Indigenous Peoples take place over a span of nearly two centuries. Canada is currently undergoing its fifth wave.

Background

Since confederation in 1867, the highest annual immigration rate in Canada occurred during the early 20th century, including 1913 (new immigrants accounted for 5.3 percent of the total population), 1912 (5.1 percent), 1911 (4.6 percent), 1907 (4.3 percent) and 1910 (4.1 percent).[2][1] At this time, immigration from the British Isles increased, supplemented by a rapid increase in immigration flows from continental Europe, especially Germany, Scandinavia, and the Soviet Union.

During the 2020s (up to August 2025/Q3), 2,260,615 immigrants have arrived in Canada.

Between March 17, 2022 and April 1, 2024, 298,128 Ukrainians arrived in Canada, the vast majority of whom were not counted in the official immigration statistics for each calendar year, instead arriving under temporary resident visas.[13][14][15]
