This is moreso a correction to a brief period of abnormally high temporary migration though. Aside from those few years of the early 2020s, Canada would not typically admit 1 million+ temporary migrants annually. That was a pretty extreme aberration; which is resulting in an equally large outflow of people now that migration patterns have come back down to earth.
Temporary migration has simply returned to historic norms; while permanent migration has returned to above-average historic norms.

Bit of an outlier for obvious reasons. Does the 2025 include the Russian-occupied & breakaway parts of the country, or is it the population of free Ukraine only?
