And 2022 and 2023 have been record breaking years for Canadian immigration

In absolute terms or also as annual percentage increase?

During this period, the highest annual immigration rate in Canada occurred in 1913, when 400,900 new immigrants accounted for 5.3 percent of the total population while the greatest number of immigrants admitted to Canada in single year occurred in 2022, with 437,500 persons accounting for 1.1 percent of the total population.

In absolute terms
