For several years, Canada has positioned itself as one of the countries with the most facilitation of immigration, both because of its policies and because of the job openings offered throughout its territory. However, in the next few years, it seems that more people will be able to come to this country and start a new life.
“We must use immigration as a means to expand the workforce, address our demographic challenges and bring more families together. “Canada will welcome 465,000 new permanent residents in 2023, 485,000 in 2024, and 500,000 in 2025,” Fraser said on his Twitter account.
According to the minister, the country is striving to create jobs that encourage economic growth and also to encourage the population of certain provinces that are sparsely populated, both those that speak English and those that attract people to franchise processes, which means conveying French and the culture of the region.
“As the economy reopens, Canada has the potential to attract talent from all corners of the world to help grow our workforce, fill the skills gaps needed to compete in the 21st century, and empower our communities to empower the next generation.” said the minister.
Let’s seize the moment by embracing immigration as an essential part of the strategy to grow Canada’s economy.

It is recalled that Faser has also announced the temporary lifting of the measure restricting students from working off-campus for only 20 hours a week to ensure the time required for their studies.
“Canada must consider all options so that we have the skills and manpower to drive our growth. Immigration will be crucial to addressing our labor shortages,” the minister stressed.
Without a doubt, before making such an important decision as emigrating to another country, it is crucial to gather information and find contacts that will be helpful in the process.
From this premise was born Conectando Canada, a space for conversations about different areas, where migration processes will be discussed, what are the prerequisites to arriving as a student, how to prepare for this challenge, and how to go to work for a company in this established land or find a job.
The aim is to promote the various calls made by the institutions for Colombians in the areas of greatest demand, offering programs starting at 15 million pesos with scholarships of up to 40% in master’s degrees. In addition to this initiative to promote education in a global context, there are opportunities for entrepreneurs with business ideas who want to expand in this country.
