Canadian Immigration Job Services

The province of Ontario is investing over $27 million into forty provincial programs that will help new immigrants find employment in their field of training and experience. These programs are an expansion of previous efforts by the province, and will cover numerous regions including Toronto, Ottawa, London, Hamilton, the Niagara Region, and the Kitchener-Waterloo Region.

The programs include services in the sectors of education, engineering, finance, health care, research and innovation, social work and trades. In accordance with the Canada-Ontario Immigration Agreement, the government of Canada will contribute $8.1 million to the effort. Since 2003, Ontario has devoted over $85 million in funding to help an estimated 20,000 newcomers.
