在加拿大政府对该国移民实施限制近三年后，其可能正考虑改变方向，在下月官方政策公布时提高接纳量。
After nearly three years of the Canadian Government restricting immigration into the country, it may be considering a change of direction by increasing intake when the official policy is announced next month.
这一信号来自加拿大移民、难民和公民部长莉娜·梅特莱格·迪亚布，她在安大略省基奇纳镇周五的媒体互动中表示：“我们也认识到，我们需要来自国外的人来填补我们在未来十年左右无法填补的空缺。所以请关注我们下一份移民水平计划。”她还提到了总理马克·卡尼在加拿大的增长议程。
That was indicated by Canada’s minister of immigration, refugees and citizenship, Lena Metlege Diab, during a media interaction in the town of Kitchener in Ontario on Friday. She “We also recognise that we need people from outside the country to come fill gaps that we cannot fill for the next decade or so. So stay tuned to our next immigration level plan,” Diab said. She referred to Prime Minister Mark Carney’s growth agenda for Canada in this context.
“正如总理所说，我们希望让我们的经济成为七国集团中最好的，为了实现这一点，我需要利用我在移民部长职务中拥有的杠杆，”她补充道，并在CTV新闻的互动视频中说道。
“As the Prime Minister said, we want to have our economy be the best in the G7, and in order to do that, I need to use the levers that I have in my role as Immigration Minister,” she added, in a video of the interaction from the outlet CTV News.“We’ve taken a step backwards on immigration,” she said, pointing out that the country’s population increase had been the slowest since World War II.
“我们在移民方面已经倒退了一步，”她指出，称该国人口增长自二战以来最为缓慢。“我们有一个雄心勃勃的议程。我们将推动增长。我们确实需要人才，”她在该背景下说道。
“We have an ambitious agenda. We are going to want to drive growth. We do need people,” she said in that context.
迪亚布的言论是在她宣布对技术工人移民计划进行调整之际作出的，这发生在卡尼一个月前在接受《纽约时报》采访时暗示将实施“受控增加”移民人数之后。
Diab’s remarks came as she announced changes to an immigration programme for skilled workers, a month after Carney, in an interview to the New York Times, signalled a “controlled increase” in immigration numbers.
从11月3日起，加拿大经验类或在高薪职业（即收入至少为加拿大中位数工资的1.3倍）获得符合条件工作offer的候选人，将在快速通道（Express Entry）项目的永久居留申请中获得额外加分，这包括工程师、医疗专业人员、如电工等技工、信息技术专业人员等。
“所以这将会发生，我们只想确保我们已经将其控制住，”卡尼曾在九月这样说过。
From November 3, additional points will be given for permanent residency applications under the Express Entry programme for candidates with eligible Canadian work experience or a qualifying job offer in a high-wage occupation, which means an income at least 1.3 times the median wage in Canada, and includes engineers, medical professionals, tradespersons like electricians, information technology professionals, among others.“So that will happen, and we just want to make sure that we’ve got it under control,” Carney had said in September.
