Sept 20,2023 Canada Invites 1000 candidates in Transport Occupations to apply for Permanent Residence
“The transportation sector is crucial to our economy, and if we want to keep things moving, we need to invest in the people that move travelers and transport our goods,” says Minister of Transport Pablo Rodriguez. “With this new initiative, we are helping address a critical skills shortage while also attracting new, talented people to communities across Canada. Truck drivers, pilots, aviation mechanical engineers and seafarers play a critical role in our economy and Canadians’ lives.
Filling vacancies in these professions will boost economic growth and create stronger and more resilient supply chains.”
