While cities across Canada are engaged in a heated competition to attract more immigrants, Charlottetown led the way as it welcomed 1,900 people in 2019, 2.4% of its population is newcomers. This is due to the province of Prince Edward Island’s success in attracting large numbers of Economic Class immigrants through the Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) and Atlantic Immigration Pilot (AIP). At the national level, Canada welcomed more than 341,000 immigrants or about 0.9% of its population.
