The launch of the Rural Community Immigration Pilot is scheduled for fall of 2024. Its objective is to maintain rural communities' access to programs that tackle labor shortages and assist local businesses in finding necessary workers. The initiative will offer routes to permanent residency for newcomers who can address crucial labor shortages and are interested in residing in these smaller communities for an extended period.
