·         Brantford, Ottawa, Kelowna, Quebec, Calgary, Saskatoon, Abbotsford, Halifax, Victoria and Toronto are the top cities where you can find most jobs

With a large number of Canadians retiring this year, it has become absolutely essential for the country to welcome more immigrants, including skilled workers, to fill critical labour market shortages. Even the immigration minister Sean Fraser went on to tweet, “With five million Canadians set to retire by the end of the decade, the economic need for immigration is more important than ever."

“…We will continue to welcome a record number of immigrants to contribute to our communities."

Top 10 cities in Canada to find jobs under express entry:

As per reports, the country is poised to welcome 431,645 immigrants this year. “The current immigration levels plan targets 447,055 new permanent residents next year and 451,000 in 2024," an Immigration.ca report said.

Among the cities where you can find jobs under Express Entry include Brantford, Ottawa, Kelowna, Quebec, Calgary, Saskatoon, Abbotsford, Halifax, Victoria and Toronto.

In Brantford, the employment percentage increased by 17.3% last year. In Ottawa, it increased by 67%

List of vacancies across industries

Three programmes - Federal Skilled Worker(FSW), Federal Skilled Trades (FST), and Canada Experience Class (CEC) - are the most suitable ways to apply for jobs in Canada as an economic immigrant. And all the programmes use Express Entry system.

The industries that have a huge number of vacancies include industrial, electrical and construction trades, maintenance and equipment operation trades, technical jobs in natural resources, agriculture and related production, processing, manufacturing and utilities supervisors and central control operators.

Why Canada is inviting immigrants to apply for permanent residency?

Canada’s labour market has significantly shrunk this year with people aged 55 and older retiring and that would leave create 1 million job vacancies in the country, especially summer jobs.

CIC News cited that Canada’s 9 million baby boomers are slated to reach retirement age this decade. “A recent RBC survey suggested one-third of Canadians are retiring early, and three in 10 pre-retirees are changing their retirement date because of the pandemic." Meanwhile, the fertility rate decreased to a record low of 1.4 children per woman in 2020.

A new generation wouldn't be able to replace the retirees (in terms of job vacancies) if the population rate doesn't increase to 2.1 babies per woman.

How foreign nations are incentivizing overseas education for Indian students:

India, the fastest-growing major economy of the world in contemporary times, is considered to be going through one of the crucial phases of its economic development- the phase of demographic dividend. This huge dividend (young population) aspires to attain the best education and employment opportunities across the world, which has been made possible by general and Indian specific steps undertaken by the nations around the world to incentivise and contribute towards the holistic development of the students.

The United Arab Emirates (UAE), the United Kingdom (UK), United States of America (US), Australia, Canada are the most lucrative education destinations for Indians. The data from the ministry of external affairs highlights an increasing trend of Indian students aligned to study from abroad but the above countries take precedence over other nations. This biased trend is due to the policies and steps undertaken by these governments to make education accessible, affordable, and secure for the international student in general and is skewed towards Indians in particular.

UAE has grown to be one of the most preferred destinations for Indian students in the last 5 years, as it attracts 2,19,000 Indian students to pursue their intellectual development by ensuring a huge advantage in terms of- cultural affinity, less travel time to India, relatively lower tuition and living expenses, post-study work rights and ease of doing business. The Extravagant and tax-free Dubai provides immense development opportunities due to its laissez-faire policy system that has provided the highest returns to the student not only in terms of Intellect but also in terms of employment and relatively large amount of remuneration back home.

The UK has been a popular destination as highlighted by the trends – out of 3,95,630 Non-EU students 52,545 are from India. The new international student-friendly post-study work regulation introduced in 2020/21, allows talented graduates an extended period of two years for employment opportunities and is also deliberating about reducing visa fees and making the visa- process easier for Indian students. It attracts such a huge Cohort of international students due to the plethora of world-class universities -Oxford and Cambridge among others-and innovative teaching methods and above all the grandeurs of innovations, discovery, art, and culture add appeal to it.

The USA which is the world’s most developed economy and has the most Nobel laureates in the world, with 33 universities in the top 100 of the world including the famous IVY League Institutions, the Indian diaspora constitutes the second-largest academic community in the US, supporting a huge cultural diversity which experienced a decline during Trump era is trying to come back in business with vibrant campus life and the plethora of self-development opportunities as Bill administration announces reforms which allow students with STEM with more work options and has also prompted administration grant traveling exemptions, relaxing visa requirements, like waving in-person interviews to speed up visa process among others to attract Indian students.

Australia has been developing as the new hotspot for the aspiring Indian students which constitutes the second largest( 92,383) cohort of students due to student-friendly visa system coupled with attractive employment opportunities and the second-best country in terms of quality of life. The Australian government is incentivising Visa, by waiving visa fees on arrival in Australia for foreign students and increasing post-study work visa duration from two years to six years contingent on qualification has been highly appreciated by the Indian diaspora.

Canada has a massive appeal among students for higher education. Canada, with its ultra student-friendly policies as it announced full 400,000 PR spots which are in immense favor of Indian students as currently, three out of 10 UG students and five out of 10 PG students are granted but with the increase in PR Canada is likely to feature in one of the topmost choices of Indian students. Coupled with a plethora of scholarship schemes

Technology and education have evolved many folds during contemporary circumstances, but the education system has transformed exponentially with the involvement of technology. Many organisations and ed-tech startups have been established to be the support system of students who aspire to study abroad by tying up with foreign universities to fulfill the abroad aspirations of the student in trying times. Such consonance between tech and education is the way to trace new methods as systems evolve with time.

Dual citizenship with the European Union:

Due to uncertainty around the world, almost from all the developing countries people are trying to migrate to different locations around the globe as per the choice and taste.

First reason , Its been discovered that almost all Europeans get several weeks of vacation every year, guaranteed healthcare, and access to higher education at a minimal cost. Plus, many countries offered subsidies for childcare and extended, paid maternity leave. Fear of gun violence was not part of daily life.

Although so many people never took any serious steps toward moving abroad, when the reality of what is was missing hit hard as the years went on.

 Later when they realize, people often found themselves wondering if they could have given the chance to live somewhere that offers different, and better, opportunities.

When we started casually researching people either wanted to migrate fully or enjoy the benefits of dual citizenship with European Union countries.

With an EU passport, you and your children could live, work, and study throughout the continent. Even if they didn't want to move abroad, they would have the option of staying in most of Europe if they liked to travel or take an internship that could set them apart.

We also learned that many employers favor hiring dual citizens because of the flexibility it gives them to conduct business abroad. We also liked the idea of them having strong ties to the countries of their great-grandparents and hoped that citizenship would spark curiosity and open the door to cultural opportunities.

Although many families has deep roots in the United States going back to the American Revolution, few families consists of more recent arrivals, part of this culture of migration.

Its also seen that ancestors scattered across Europe and beyond, often fleeing one oppressor and then another. its started crafting a family tree and researching which of the numerous countries where their ancestors had previously settled would offer their descendants citizenship.

Although there were a few potential options, still people now a day’s wanted to settled on applying for citizenship in Poland.

Polish passport, With few documents in hand or you can obtain documentation confirming the citizenship for applying outright. Once you become Polish citizen, your children's citizenship will be easily confirmed.

While it's still too soon to tell so many details here, which undeniably has much to offer, or choose a different route, you will be thrilled to know that you will have access to opportunities that were not available to everyone.

What was just a daydream for few and can be a reality for few who really wanted to obtain.
