Canada’s Minister of Citizenship and Immigration, the Honourable Diane Finley, has announced changes to the immigration system which will speed the visa application process for highly skilled workers, to get them into the country and working in high demand areas faster.
It is estimated that there are currently around 950,000 applications backlogged in the Canadian immigration system and this number was expected to reach 1.5 million by 2012 if the announced changes had not been implemented.
The skills shortage is rapidly increasing in Canada. If you have high demand skills and are interested in migrating, things are just about to become easier. Go to www.workingin-canada.com and see whether migration to Canada might be right for you.
