There were 1,005 Portuguese who entered Canada in 2023, according to data from Citizenship and Immigration Canada. The official statistics department accounted for a total of 471,810 entries of foreigners in Canadian territory in that year, with the Portuguese accounting for 0.2% of this total. +

After a small decline in 2022 (-1.7%), there was an increase in Portuguese emigration to Canada in 2023 (+14.9%). During the period under review, the lowest value was recorded in 2003 (329 entries), while the highest was in 2023 (1,005 entries). Portuguese emigration to Canada continues to represent a very small fraction of both immigration in this country (0.2%) and total Portuguese emigration (less than 1%).
