2024 Deportations: Canada deported over 18,000 people in 2024, the highest figure since the 2006-2015 government led by Stephen Harper. The cost for these operations reached approximately $78 million.
2025 Removals: In the 2024-2025 fiscal year, there were a total of 18,084 removals. In the 2025 calendar year, up to October 31st, there were 18,785 total removals, with 8,982 specifically classified as deportation orders (permanent bans).
Primary Reasons: The vast majority of those deported have been asylum seekers whose refugee claims were rejected, accounting for about 79% of deportations in late 2024. Other reasons include non-compliance with visa conditions (such as overstaying a visa) and criminal activity.
Targeted Groups: Indian nationals were the second largest group for removals in 2024 (1,997 individuals) and are on track to surpass that number in 2025 (2,831 as of July 2025), a record high for that demographic.

This surge is occurring amid a broader shift in Canada's immigration policy, with the federal government aiming to tighten targets for both temporary and permanent residents.

Policy Changes: The government has faced public pressure regarding housing shortages and border security concerns, leading to a tougher stance on immigration enforcement.
Increased Funding: The federal government has allocated additional funds to the CBSA to increase the rate and efficiency of deportations.
Growing Backlog: Despite the increased removals, there remains a significant backlog of pending refugee claims, which reached nearly 300,000 cases in late 2025.
Advocate Concerns: Migrant advocates have labeled the high rate of deportations "shocking and unjustifiable," arguing the current system is too restrictive and that some individuals face removal while their appeals are still in process
