This marks the third month in a row that Canada's immigration levels were higher than usual. Canada landed nearly 40,000 new permanent residents in July, and nearly 36,000 in June.

Immigration levels fell significantly beginning in April 2020 following the implementation of COVID-19 public health measures in Canada.
