Le Québec face au dilemme de l’immigration
Cet article explore le dilemme de l’immigration au Québec, en mettant en lumière son évolution historique et son impact sur la politique contemporaine. Je retrace d’abord la manière dont le Québec a acquis ses pouvoirs en immigration, les circonstances et parties prenantes qui ont permis cette transformation, ainsi que les effets de ces avancées sur son rapport à la migration. J’explore ensuite comment la reconfiguration du système partisan québé…
Crise ou transformation ? Revisiter l’exceptionnalisme migratoire québécois
La question migratoire occupe une place de plus en plus centrale dans le débat public québécois. Le Québec se distingue par son autonomie dans la sélection et l’installation des personnes immigrantes, l’importance accordée à la langue française et sa propre approche de l’accueil. Pourtant, les profondes transformations récentes des politiques et des discours sur la migration interrogent cette singularité. Cette introduction situe le Québec dans s…
Competing globally, marketing locally: Subnational migration marketing in Australia and Canada
In an era of skills-focused immigration, subnational units increasingly assert their role in attracting the ‘best and brightest’ migrants, creating a complex landscape of vertical (national vs subnational levels) and horizontal (among subnational units) competition. This article investigates the marketing tools and strategies employed by subnational units in Canada and Australia in competing for migrants. Adopting a subnational comparative approa…
Introduction. La politique et les politiques de l’immigration au Québec
La dimension identitaire du nationalisme de la CAQ: L’affirmation des frontières imaginées de la nation québécoise
Cette note de recherche examine le nationalisme identitaire de la Coalition Avenir Québec (CAQ) depuis son arrivée au pouvoir, à travers une analyse qualitative des débats parlementaires à l’Assemblée nationale du Québec (2018–2023). En s’appuyant sur les discours des élus caquistes, elle explore comment la CAQ définit et met en oeuvre son nationalisme identitaire, caractérisé par un interventionnisme fort en matière d’immigration, de laïcité et …

The hidden power of provincial and territorial immigration programs in shaping Canada’s immigration landscape
The Canadian immigration system is unique in that subnational governments play a significant role in selecting immigrants through Provincial Nominee Programs (PNPs), which empower nine provinces and two territories to actively select (“nominate”) economic immigrants. Collectively, PNPs have become the country’s largest economic immigration program, but they are also the least studied, leading to a lack of understanding, transparency, and accounta…

Stand by me: Competitive Subnational Regimes and the Politics of Retaining Immigrants
This article examines the pivotal role of immigration for subnational units, focusing on their efforts to retain immigrants. In the global competition for ‘wanted’ immigrants, subnational governments have developed innovative immigration-related programmes tailored to their demographic, economic, and linguistic needs. While previous research has mainly focused on the selection of international immigrants, this study delves into subnational effort…

Temporary Protection in Times of Crisis: The European Union, Canada, and the Invasion of Ukraine
The Russian invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 triggered a major displacement crisis. In an unprecedented move, the European Union activated the 2001 Temporary Protection Directive to give those fleeing the conflict temporary protection, marking the first use of the directive in 20 years. Meanwhile, Canada announced its readiness to accept an unlimited number of Ukrainians and launched the Canada–Ukraine Authorization of Emergency Travel to fas…

Immigrant integration policies when regions decide ‘who comes in’: The case of Canadian provinces
Using the Canadian case, this paper explores immigrant integration policies when Rokkan and non-Rokkan regions have immigrant selection capacities. By systematically documenting integration policies of all Canadian regions and by describing elites’ justifications for such policies between 2010 and 2018, we demonstrate that every region – including Quebec, which has a distinct language and culture – primarily focuses on economic immigrant integrat…
Citizenship as a rhetorical tool of nation-building: Discourse in Flanders and Quebec
Recognising that citizenship is an object of contention, this article studies how political actors mobilise the concept of citizenship at the subnational level. As immigrant integration policies define the ‘boundaries of citizenship’, I study the discourse on immigrant integration to trace political parties’ arguments supporting or opposing subnational citizenship. I conduct a qualitative content analysis of parliamentary debates between 1999 and…
From different paths to a similar road? Understanding the convergence of subnational immigrant integration policies in Belgium
In Belgium, subnational levels are responsible for immigrant integration and have developed their own policies. Historically, francophone and Flemish political elites have taken opposing views on immigrant integration policy. However, regional policies have recently converged towards Flanders’ model, which involves a strong focus on compulsory civic integration. To understand this convergence and Wallonia’s utter shift, this paper investigates tw…
The integration of new immigrants in Brussels: An institutional and political puzzle
In Belgium, the Brussels-Capital Region constitutes the main gateway for international migration. Like everywhere in Europe, the challenge of immigration and in particular what happens afterwards, namely the integration of new immigrants in the host society, is particularly palpable in Brussels. Within the Belgian federal state, the federated entities have implemented different integration policies. Recently, these policies have experienced major…
L’intégration des nouveaux arrivants à Bruxelles: Un puzzle institutionnel et politique
En Belgique, la Région de Bruxelles-Capitale constitue la principale porte d’entrée de la migration internationale. Comme partout en Europe, l’enjeu de l’immigration et en particulier de son « après », à savoir l’insertion des nouveaux arrivants dans la société d’accueil, y est particulièrement sensible. Au sein de l’Etat fédéral belge, les entités fédérées ont mis en place des politiques d’intégration différentes. Récemment, celles-ci ont connu …
Integratie van nieuwkomers in Brussel: Een institutionele en politieke puzzel
In België is het Brussels Hoofdstedelijk Gewest de belangrijkste toegangspoort voor internationale migranten. Zoals overal in Europa zijn migratie en vooral postmigratie, namelijk de integratie van de nieuwkomers in de gastsamenleving, zeer delicate kwesties. Binnen de Belgische federale Staat hebben de deelgebieden een verschillend integratiebeleid opgezet, dat onlangs ingrijpend gewijzigd werd, vooral in Brussel, waar de situatie interpellerend…
