Description
Federal ministers Steven Guilbeault (environment) and Randy Boissonnault (employment) hold a news conference in Ottawa to discuss the introduction of legislation in the House of Commons to amend the Canada National Parks Act. The proposed changes would enable the transfer of land use planning and development authorities from Parks Canada to the Municipality of Jasper, which will help rebuild the 30% of the town that was destroyed by fire.

They are joined by Harjit Sajjan (federal emergency pr

eparedness minister), Richard Ireland (mayor of Jasper) and Andrew Campbell (senior vice-president of operations, Parks Canada).

In Ottawa, federal Immigration Minister Marc Miller and Employment Minister Randy Boissonnault announce changes to Canada’s temporary resident programs. In 2025, the government will lower the cap on international student study permits by 10 per cent of its 2024 goal. Employers will also be subject to a 10-per-cent cap on low-wage temporary foreign workers, with some industries exempted.
