Work

Every year tens of thousands of people from all over the world come to Canada, and begin their lives fresh by working in Canada. Working here can take many formats:

  • Temporary and seasonal work in farms, theme parks, or ski resorts
  • Tradespeople and other experts working in in-demand occupations like welders, mechanics, cooks, etc.
  • More professional and management-oriented workers like Bankers, Lawyers, Doctors, etc.
  • Open Work Permits issued to individuals under the International Mobility Programs (GATT, CUSMA, etc.).

Regardless of the category, the bottom line, is they want to come to Canada, but how? Generally speaking, Canadian firms wishing to hire foreign workers have to undergo a Labour Market Impact Assessment Opinion (LMIA) from the ESDC. Once approved, the budding employee can apply for a work permit. There are also various types of permits (from open work permits to employer specific).
