Immigration is essential to supporting Canada’s economic growth. As labour requirements in key sectors continue to evolve, it’s important that Canada’s immigration system is nimble and responsive to our country’s needs.
Canada’s approach to immigration supports community needs, economic objectives and humanitarian responsibilities. A key part of these responsibilities is Canada’s long-standing commitment to protecting the world’s most vulnerable, including people affected by the conflict in Sudan.
The International Experience Canada (IEC) Program empowers young Canadians with opportunities abroad that will help shape their future. IEC facilitates international experiences for young Canadians to gain invaluable skills, broaden their horizons, and return home ready to thrive in today’s global job market.
