Updated February 29 2024

With the number of Coronavirus cases decreasing in Canada, many industries are seeing a revival. Among them are video game production and film and TV production. These industries have resumed their activities while maintaining social distancing norms. Montreal has become a hub for film and TV production, especially for Hollywood production houses that are unable to travel to Europe or other countries for their work. With Canada being the closest country, its cities offer a better alternative to shooting content for streaming services whose production has picked up in the past year.

This boom in TV and film production will create job opportunities for talented people in this field. Canadian employers wishing to hire such people must get a positive Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA). If the job offer is in Quebec, they will be required to obtain a Certificatd’acceptation du Québec (CAQ). This document will allow them to work temporarily in Quebec. They will have to produce this letter and the LMIA to apply for a work permit.

Companies will quickly fill their talent requirements under this scheme. It takes to process a visa has been shortened from six months to just two weeks.
