To ease impending labour shortages, Canada will begin hosting targeted Express Entry draws specifically for skilled workers starting next year. Immigration Minister Sean Fraser explained that targeted draws would allow the government to select workers by the sector and the location they intend to live in Canada. Immigration Minister also stated his intention to work with provinces to simplify the process of foreign credential recognition for doctors and nurses. This way, healthcare workers will be more efficiently employed under a specific skilled worker program targeting areas where demand is high.
