Bring forward a proposal regarding permanent residency for new spouses entering Canada.

What success looks like

Sponsored spouses and partners no longer have to remain in abusive relationships for fear of losing their immigration status.

Government's narrative on progress

The government repealed the requirement of conditional residency so that sponsored spouses and partners are no longer required to live with their sponsor for two years in order to maintain their permanent resident status, thereby eliminating their fear of losing their immigration status and reducing their vulnerability and dependence.

Note: this is the government's own description, not an independent assessment.
