Canada Seeks Skilled Workers Worldwide Amid Labour Shortages

The Canadian government has launched a new campaign to attract skilled professionals from around the world, including Nigerians, to fill labour shortages in various sectors. The country's economy is growing and requires workers in established and emerging industries.

The occupations in high demand include STEM, healthcare, skilled trades, defence and cybersecurity, critical minerals, and education. Successful applicants can access a wide range of employment opportunities with employers across the country.

Canada offers safe and stable communities, quality education and training, and settlement services designed to help immigrants adapt to life in Canada. The government also encourages diversity and inclusion, and dedicated programmes are available to support French speaking newcomers settling outside Quebec.
