The globe is business community now. Technology and the economy are growing at a rapid speed. One can easily say that Canada is the front runner in the race of economic growth at the technological front.

With the thirst of growing rapidly Canada is in need of skilled manpower to deliver the quality output in time. Regrettably many Employers in Canadian business are struggling to find skilled professionals in Canada to fill the skilled employee space which is still in extensive number.

Information and Communications Technology Council (ICTC) projected that Canada is in need of 182,000 qualified information and communication technology employees by 2019. In many major sectors, there is massive shortage of skilled employees that is making employers turn on for International employees which is clearly evident, by the immigration trend or increase in immigration by Canada.

Immigration Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) informed that immigration policies are not against towards International workers hiring, but employers have been asked to consider applicants having permanent residence first to fill the vacancies.

In February 2016, IRCC created a new LMIA-exempt work permit category for television and film production workers by the anticipated significant economic benefits for Canadians. Additionally, Canada could benefit significantly in attracting new startup ideas, entrepreneurs, and investors, by promoting an efficient and focused immigration strategy designed to support the growth of new businesses in the innovation space.
