Canada Border Services Agency Layoffs 2026 — 348 Jobs Cut in Canada

Canada Border Services Agency is eliminating 386 positions (363 employees and 23 executives) as part of the federal government's Comprehensive Expenditure Review (Budget 2025). This total includes vacant positions, projected attrition, and positions to be eliminated through formal workforce adjustment. Of these, 348 currently filled positions (330 employees and 18 executives) are undergoing formal Workforce Adjustment (WFA) or Career Transition (CT) proceedings — the most direct indicator of employees facing displacement. 708 "affected" or "at-risk" status letters have been issued (686 to employees, 22 to executives). These notices indicate potential impact and do not necessarily result in departure from the public service. The organization employs 17,234 people in the core public administration as of March 2025. Notifications were issued in Phase 3 of the Government of Canada's workforce reduction process.
