-job-vacancies-

OTTAWA: Canada is struggling to fill job vacancies in the nation as they look to find a solution in expats. At present, there are about ten lakh vacancies in various posts in the country. About 300,000 new jobs were created in Canada in one year. There aren't enough workers in the country to fill these vacancies. Canada is eyeing people from foreign countries including India. Canada's Labor Force Survey, released in May 2022, clarifies the state of employment opportunities in the country.

Canada has decided to grant permanent resident visas to 4.3 lakh people this year alone and 4.5 lakh people in 2024. There will be more employment opportunities in the fields of science, professional field, technology field, transport, warehousing, finance, insurance and real estate. Vacancies will increase in all other sectors. In April, 89,900 vacancies were reported in the construction sector alone.
