Tech-only immigration draws being held by British Columbia

Tech-only immigration draws are now being held by British Columbia in Canada, a trend that is in harmony with several other provinces in Canada. The diverse provinces in Canada are taking measures to give priority to prospective immigrants in the IT sector. The provincial nomination program of British Columbia is one of the PNPs of Canada. Through the PNPs diverse provinces in Canada nominate immigrants to settle in their labor markets through immigration draws. British Columbia has held 6 tech-only immigration draws since May 2017. It has been reported by the media that the tech sector in British Columbia has accentuated the pace of its growth. This has also been influenced by the overseas talents deserting tech hubs such as the Silicon Valley of the US. Donald Trump’s presidency of the US is taking a negative view of immigration notwithstanding the publicly acknowledged advantages supported by research. This has had an adverse impact on the US tech sector too, as quoted by the CIC News. Canada and especially British Columbia will be benefited owing to the divergence in immigration policies of the US and Canada. British Columbia has already earned the reputation for tech talent and innovation. The affinity of the British Columbia to the US and mild climate are the other factors that appeal to overseas firms and workers equally. As of now, British Columbia has not specified the numbers of invitation to apply that have been offered by it to applicants registered in the skills immigration registration system. CIC News tried to obtain further details from the PNP of British Columbia regarding the statistics of the ITAs and tech jobs that have been included. But no such data is available from it as of now.
