Booming Canadian Economy Seek Skilled Immigrants
December 4, 2011: Canada is inviting nearly 45,000 new skilled immigrants amid its new law as the country braces itself to fight skilled workforce shortage across various provinces like Alberta.
The federal government of Canada has given a green signal to the proposed planned increase in welcoming skilled immigrants in the country. Under the proposal that has provincially designed programs, provinces like Alberta are now free to bring in higher number of highly skilled immigrants. The initiative also authorizes provinces to nominate individuals meeting domestic market needs for permanent residence in the country.
The new rules announced Monday by Canada's cabinet minister, Tim Uppal, would make way for Citizenship and Immigration Canada to accept 42,000 to 45,000 new skilled workforce nationwide. With the introduction of the new initiative, labor shortages in Alberta that was one of the biggest problems facing the province could slowly ease out as the newly introduced program has offered one-quarter of its estimated 40,000 vacancies to Alberta alone for the current year while the provinces' percentages for the year 2012 would be determined at a later date.
No Quick Fix Solution: While industry experts including Ben Brunnen, director of policy and government affairs with the Calgary Chamber of Commerce has applauded the government's decision calling it an effective tool, the provincial government of Alberta wants to be sure. The government is seeking more details from Ottawa to be completely certain on the working and the immigration policy of the federal plan through the Alberta Immigrant Nominee Program.
The Canadian federal skilled worker immigration program caters to all aspects of applicants applying under skilled worker category. While every prospective applicant is allowed to earn points under the government policy, there are independent immigration guidelines for the province of Quebec.
Booming Canadian Economy: The booming Canadian economy coupled with massive projects in both government and private sector has the country seeking skilled workers. There have been reports of serious shortfall of skilled workers in companies involved with fisheries, mining, oil and natural gas industries. In this era of global uncertainty not only is the Canadian market a strong emerging market but there are job opportunities across various industries for various skilled and semi skilled positions with wide range of salaries and perks depending on the job and levels of experience.
