On 13, december 2022 in ottawa, on the very auspicious occasion of the partners meeting, the Honourable Sean Fraser, Minister of Immigration, refugee and Citizenship (IRCC) announced a new funding for partner organization to extend the help for Canada’s economic Mobility Pathways Pilot to more skilled refugees. In the coming next 5 years, Canada is aiming to work with employers and communities across the country to increase the pilot and welcome 2,000 skilled refugees to fill labour shortages in demanded sectors like Healthcare, skilled trades and information technology.
Through EMPP partner organizations provide help to skilled refugees overseas to get connected with employers who want to fill severe labour shortages in occupations like, personal support workers and nurse aides, chefs and cooks, and skilled trade people. After receiving the job offer, the candidate can apply to immigrate to Canada through economic programs using EMPP.
In addition to EMPP, Canada is going to provide $6.2 million to support 6 projects by EMPP partner organizations. These 6 projects will help to build the capacity of these organizations in key areas like identifying qualified candidates overseas, and supporting candidates and employers throughout the interviews, hiring and Canada Immigration Processes. This funding will also support the partner organization that helps EMPP newcomers with Affordable microloans.
As we all know Canada is an international leader in refugee resettlement and integration, Canada resettled more refugees than any other country in the whole world last year. That is why Canada is prioritizing the development of labour complementary pathways which includes traditional resettlement for refugees and their families to find a safe and permanent solution.

Legal Statements
The Honourable Sean Fraser, Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship said “Resettlement provides refugees with the opportunity to live in safety and rebuild their lives, but it shouldn’t mean their career experience gets overlooked in the process. Through this groundbreaking program, our government is highlighting skilled refugees’ professional achievements by allowing them to continue their career in Canada, while giving employers access to a pool of global talent. Several employers, such as Glen Haven Manor, have pioneered and championed this program from its inception, and I look forward to others across the country following their lead.”
Lara Dyer, Canada Director, Talent Beyond Boundaries said “Refugees have skills and talents that are desperately needed in the Canadian labour market—from personal care workers to skilled tradespeople to software engineers. As an authorized referral partner under the EMPP, Talent Beyond Boundaries will continue working hard with our government and other partners to make it easier for skilled refugees to apply and faster for Canadian employers to hire, ultimately increasing the number of refugees relocating to Canada overall.”
