Canada Deports 3,323 Indians in First Half of 2026, Surpassing Other Nationalities
Canada deported 3,323 Indian nationals in the first half of 2026, marking a significant rise and positioning India as the top nationality for removals during this period. This figure approaches the record 3,779 deportations in 2025 and surpasses Mexico's 1,573 deportations in the same timeframe. The increase follows Canada's tightening of immigration policies and targets non-compliance, visa overstays, rejected asylum claims, and visa fraud. Additionally, 7,669 Indians await removal, reflecting ongoing enforcement efforts amid evolving India-Canada relations.
