Working in Canada
Canadian Labour Market
The Canadian labour market is highly competitive and it is important to note that approval to immigrate does not guarantee employment, even if you are highly skilled. It may take some time to find a suitable job. The job market fluctuates depending on prevailing economic factors, the type of work you are seeking and other specific circumstances which may affect different industries or parts of the country.
Canada needs skilled workers
However, Canada is thirsty for new skilled workers in a variety of fields. Canada's low unemployment rate of 6.3% means that there has rarely been a better time to immigrate to Canada for work. As just two examples, the Construction industries in British Columbia and Ontario are in dire need of workers, and Alberta's booming oil industry has created a shortage of skilled workers to keep the economy growing. Almost all provinces are actively seeking new immigrants.
