On June 27, Sean Fraser, the Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship in Canada, announced a host of new work permit categories and initiatives that are designed to, “ensure Canada is not only filling in-demand jobs today, but also attracting the skills and business talent to create the jobs of tomorrow.” The Canadian government plans to re-tool existing programs and create new ones such as a “North American” labour mobility solution that targets existing H-1B visa holders in the United States specifically.
Please join us as we unpack both the “knowns” and “unknowns” of the recently announced Tech Talent Strategy and other recent initiatives that the Canadian government has implemented to attract tech talent to Canada and retain them permanently. We will be discussing:
- What's new about Canada's new Tech Talent Strategy?
- How can individual applicants and companies leverage the new strategy to address uncertainties in the U.S. immigration environment?
- What impact will the initiatives have on long-term, permanent residency solutions for individuals inside Canada, including the new occupation-specific Express Entry invitations?
- And much more!
