Canada is a federal parliamentary state with Ottawa as its capital. The languages spoken in the country are English and French and immigrants having knowledge of any one of these or both of these get a chance to migrate to Canada. Canada is covered with mountains, plains, forests, lakes, and many other natural aspects. Canada has become one of the favorite destinations for immigrants who want to study, work, and settle in the country. As Canada is facing a shortage of workers, so it has plans to invite high-skilled workers from different countries. Canada has planned to invite many immigrants every year. According to the Canada 2023-2025 immigration plan, Canada will invite 1.5 million newcomers by 2025 as shown in the table below:
Year | Immigration Levels Plan |
2023 | 465,000 permanent residents |
2024 | 485,000 permanent residents |
2025 | 500,000 permanent residents |
Canada has 10 provinces and 3 territories out of which Quebec has a separate legal system. All these provinces are in dire need of foreign workers to reduce the skills shortage. Immigrants can migrate to Canada through various immigration programs and live in the country for a temporary period or settle here permanently.
Companies in Canada are facing a shortage of workers, so it is the best time for immigrants to apply for jobs available in different sectors.
