Québec can nominate the percentage of immigrants corresponding to its population within Canada.

• A. It cannot set any percentage
• B. They can nominate a fixed 25%
• C. They can nominate the percentage of immigrants corresponding to its population
• D. They can nominate only French-speaking immigrants

Answer: (C)

Québec’s ability to determine its share of immigration comes from the Canada–Québec Accord, which gives Québec jurisdiction over selecting immigrants and sets its annual intake in line with its share of the national population. Because of this arrangement, Québec can nominate the percentage of immigrants that corresponds to its population within Canada. The proportion isn’t fixed at a specific number and isn’t limited to French-speaking immigrants, and it isn’t true that Québec has no say in the amount. This arrangement reflects Québec’s unique role in shaping its own immigration level based on its demographic size.
