The largest North-American country in terms of Area & the Second-Largest country in the world needs people due to the lower levels of population density. However, in almost all professional sectors, people are needed in Canada, especially after COVID-19, a pandemic that dented the Canadian economy in almost all sectors specially concerning the job crisis, as the Canadian economy is still in the process of recovery.

Compared to other countries, including Germany, the UK, the USA & Australia, Canada requires the highest population for permanent settlements. Their famous entry programs, including GTS, Federal & PNP or Provincial Nominee Program, and Express Entry programs, are specially designed for people of almost all ages. The best part regards to the flexibility levels that are highly increased so that the maximum amount of people avail the flexibility in migration policies & the demands of the Govt. of Canada.

WHY ARE THE DEMANDS OF THE CANADIAN GOVT. INCREASING?

The demands of the Govt. of Canada are increasing primarily due to labor shortages as they need to meet the demands rapidly. Applicants from all over the world, including Asia, Europe, and Africa & Latin America are applying in Canada for the sake of safe & secure land for people coming to study for the sake of work & most importantly for permanent settlements. A land enriched with resources as well as academic resources for the immigrants. world is amazing. Furthermore, it has been very challenging. It shows the level of flexibility that Immigration Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) and the Govt. of Canada meets, including programs like GTS, Federal & PNP or Provincial Nominee Program.

The policy framework demands the applicants to strictly meet the requirements that are very flexible for the sake of people coming to Canada annually. The goal of the policies that are specifically the immigration policies, is to focus on the maximum amount of people who needs to come to Canada. Furthermore, they should be from all over the globe as Canada meets the demands of people worldwide. Apart from meeting the demands, Canada needs people from all over the world to dynamically keep up with their rising challenge of filling the gaps, i.e. the labor shortages. These policies reflect the openness of Canada as an immigration country & the tendency of the Canadian Govt. to be more open & relaxed in terms of the policies. There is no compromise regarding meeting the demands, but the openness is very obvious for inflow coming to Canada in 2023.

CANADA GLOBAL TALENT STREAM (GTS):

The Canada Global Talent Stream (GTS) is a program for global talent hunt & talent management in Canada. A country that demands talent from all over the world; as for the Govt. of Canada, people coming to their country must have the desired talent & skills for what they are applying for. The program was initially launched in 2017 due to a partnership between the IRCC and ESDC (Employment & Social Development Canada). IRCC obviously is the pivotal body that is responsible for immigration into Canada.

The GTS helps certain & selected Canadian employers to hire highly-skilled talent from around the world, enabling them to compete on a more international scale. The employ- expedite the process of hiring foreign nationals via the Global Skills Strategy.

A program that is particularly focused on globalization & hunt for talent from many countries outside Canada. Vitally, Canada every day becomes a hub for the best exploitation of talent due to the rich resources of the Canadian Govt.

Other programs like Federal Nominee Programs (FNP) or Provincial Nominee Programs (PNP) are slightly different as they are more centered towards strictly meeting the demands & shortages that are provincial & Federal. The aim is to entertain people according to where they fit without compromising the standards. Canadian Govt. along with the IRCC, has been strictly focused on standards & goals that should be met for the sake of development that is much focused. The goal of the Govt. is not that they give permanent residency to everyone. However, the best shouldn’t be ignored for the sake of future development strategies & goals.
