In the most recently conducted draws of British Columbia, 211 candidates got the opportunity to apply for PR. The Canadian province has been looking for workers to fulfill the labor shortages.
Just like other provinces and territories of Canada, British Columbia is also searching for laborers and skilled workers to satisfy it’s workforce needs. The labor market of British Columbia is lacking in certain industries such as healthcare sector and technical sector.
How are we so sure? Because the main focus of the province has been on inviting candidates especially from these sectors. Lately, all the draws stly been targeting these categories, and if a draw was general then it at least was including the tech industry.
