The minister has asserted that the IRCC’s ability to send more invites to individuals skilled in these specific professions will assist Canada in achieving its goal of drawing in-demand workforce to all regions.
The draws under the newly established categories are anticipated to commence later this season.
The new categories are not only intended to elevate the French language’s prominence in French minority communities outside Quebec but also to occupy job vacancies across Canada.
