Canada’s immigration enforcement system suffers from ‘orchestrated mismanagement,’ whistleblower claims

Interesting read. Despite the Government’s efforts and messaging, deportations and removals have declined.

And yet, in the Toronto region, about 3,000 fewer deportations took place in the last fiscal year over the previous year, a drop of about 34%, he says. Nationally, there were about 5,000 fewer deportations, down about 26%. That follows year-after-year increases in deportations since the 2008-09 fiscal year, he says.

CBSA had projected removing 17,075 people nationally in the last fiscal year but only managed to remove 13,900 and is the first time in perhaps a decade CBSA’s target was missed, the letter says.

As to his allegations of “organizational mismanagement,” hard to comment without having a full picture. And performance pay reflects the range of responsibilities of senior executives, not just one file (unless it is one of those files that contaminates all those it touches!).
