Saskatchewan Immigration, on March 7th, has announced a new Tech Talent Pathway under the SINP that will target 11 occupations of the technology sector that have labor shortages.
Quote by Immigration and Career Training Minister Jeremy Harrison:
“As Saskatchewan emerges from the impacts of the global pandemic, our technology sector will be an important driver of economic growth. The new Tech Talent Pathway provides our Saskatchewan employers with a dedicated stream for the attraction of highly skilled talent into our thriving technology sector.”
Quote by SaskTech President Dr. Aaron Genest:
“The economy of Saskatchewan relies on our ability to attract and retain highly skilled immigrants who form critical anchors of specialized skills in our communities and workforce. The Tech Talent Pathway offers a competitive advantage to Saskatchewan industries and is unique in Canada. It streamlines the immigration process and acknowledges that we want our immigrants to stay right here in our province to join us in creating innovative solutions for Saskatchewan to export to the world.”
This pathway will speed up the immigration processes for technology workers who are already working in the province, and also those who have applied from other provinces or are currently outside Canada.
