Canada has announced a pathway to residency for some 40,000 international graduates of Canadian institutions who will “actively contribute” to the country’s economy.
The opportunity is part of a wider announcement to permit permanent residency to over 90,000 essential workers and international graduates who “possess the skills and experience [the country] needs to fight the pandemic and accelerate [its] economic recovery”.
Along with the international graduate option, two other streams will grant permanent status to some 20,000 temporary workers in health care and 30,000 temporary workers in other selected essential occupations.
