Canada has launched a new program that will invite potential permanent residents with specific expertise, qualifications, or linguistic proficiency to apply for residency.
The program is aimed at addressing job vacancies across various regions of Canada and is set to commence in the upcoming summer.
The Canadian Minister of Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship, Sean Fraser, announced the program, which is part of the country’s economic immigration management system, Express Entry.
The program is designed to support businesses, address workforce requirements, and bolster French-speaking communities.
To qualify for the program, candidates must have strong French language proficiency or work experience in high-demand occupations such as healthcare, STEM professions, trades, transport, agriculture, and agri-food.
The program aims to enhance Canada’s responsiveness to evolving economic and labor market demands and strengthen its effectiveness in selecting skilled individuals for immigration.
With over one million job vacancies across Canada’s provinces, immigration will play a pivotal role in supporting the country’s sustained economic growth.
