Quebec has published a draft regulation giving more details of three new immigration pilot programs targeting specific occupations.<\/p>\n
The details were put forward in the Gazette officielle du Qu\u00e9bec on Wednesday, October 28.<\/p>\n
Each pilot program will last for five years and include up to 550 candidates per year and their family members, according to the Ministry of Immigration, Francization and Integration (MIFI).<\/p>\n
The pilots, initially announced in May and July this year<\/span><\/a>, will target beneficiary attendants (orderlies), jobs in the food processing sector, and tech workers in artificial intelligence, information technology and visual effects.<\/p>\n \u201cThese actions will allow immigrants to fully contribute to the development of Quebec society by choosing to settle there and work in these spheres of activity,\u201d said Quebec Immigration Minister Nadine Girault.<\/p>\n Read More<\/b><\/p>\n Quebec Experience Program: MIFI Softens Reforms, Reduces Work Experience<\/a><\/span> The pilot for the permanent immigration of beneficiary attendants is designed to tackle what Quebec calls the \u201cglaring lack of manpower in this field\u201d.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The pilot for food processing provides a pathway to permanent residence for temporary foreign workers in a sector with \u201csignificant labour needs\u201d.<\/p>\n The pilot for workers in artificial intelligence, information technology and visual effects aims to attract international talent, plus allow temporary workers already in Quebec to become permanent residents. Artificial intelligence workers will make up half of the 550 candidates, with the remaining quota divided equally between the other two groups.<\/p>\n Following the publication of the draft regulation, the details of the pilot programs are now open to a 45 day consultation period, ending on December 5, 2020.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Quebec has published a draft regulation giving more details of three new immigration pilot programs targeting specific occupations.
