Ottawa-The Government of Canada values its close working relationship with the Government of Quebec, a bilateral relationship that has allowed us to mutually support Quebecers over many immigration-related objectives.
The Honourable Marc Miller, Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship, announced today that the Government of Canada will be providing funding to Quebec for fiscal year 2023-2024 as part of its annual grant to the Government of Quebec under the Canada-Quebec Accord relating to Immigration. This grant covers costs for settlement services and the linguistic, cultural and economic integration of newcomers.
The funding reflects the commitment to maintaining a fair and equitable partnership between the federal government and the Government of Quebec. For fiscal year 2023-2024, Quebec can expect to receive a total of $775.1 million, which includes an indexation payment of $48.3 million.
Since 2015, the Government of Canada has allocated $4.4 billion to Quebec under the Accord. Including fiscal year 2023-2024, Quebec will have been allocated a total of $5.2 billion.
