The Honourable Lena Metlege Diab, Canada’s Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship, is set to hold a press conference in Dartmouth on May 11, 2026. She will discuss housing investments announced in the Spring Economic Update 2026 titled "Canada Strong For All." These investments aim to increase the number of homes in Nova Scotia by expanding the skilled workforce, accelerating construction processes, and encouraging modern building methods.
While the announcement focuses on housing, the initiative relates indirectly to immigration by enhancing the availability of skilled labor needed for homebuilding. The event will be held in-person with prior registration required for media attendees. IRCC is the source of this information.
