Global Skills Strategy

The Global Skills Strategy is a government initiative designed to help Canadian employers quickly access highly skilled foreign workers when needed. It streamlines the hiring process, reducing wait times and administrative hurdles, so companies can bring in talent more efficiently. The strategy focuses on supporting sectors with skill shortages, encouraging innovation and economic growth while ensuring that the international hiring process remains fair and effective. Essentially, it balances attracting global talent with maintaining robust immigration and employment standards to benefit the overall economy.
