Great news for truck drivers

On this day in 2023, in Ottawa, changes to express entry via category-based selection were announced on May 31 by Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada. Inviting people with particular job experience or French language ability to apply for permanent residency would help address labor shortages and promote economic goals.
Minister of Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Marc Miller stated today that the first round of invites for transport vocations under Express Entry's category-based selection process will take place this week. By putting an emphasis on individuals with expertise in the transportation sector, the industry will be able to recruit the competent people it needs across the country. This includes commercial truck drivers, pilots, and aircraft assembly workers.

Canada has updated its Express Entry system to make it easier for skilled workers to immigrate to the country. The Canadian government is making it a priority to welcome talented immigrants with expertise in the transportation industry in order to fill in-demand roles and keep up with the country's rapid economic development.

Canada reinforces its dedication to attracting top global talent by using category-based selection to satisfy the need for transport employees to sustain the economy. Along with general and program-specific invitation rounds, these category-based selection rounds will continue throughout the year.

Qualified candidates can easily find transportation jobs in Canada.
