What about citizenship grants?
IRCC’s open-data series on new citizens (by country and province) was archived and is not updated as open data. IRCC reports annual totals in news releases and departmental reports instead, which we do not republish as a dataset. When IRCC releases a current open dataset, we will chart it here.
