Good day ladies and gentlemen, this is IRC news, I am Joy Stephen, a certified Canadian Immigration practitioner, and I bring to you this Federal News Bulletin from CIC news release. This recording originates from the Polinsys studios in Cambridge, Ontario.
| The federal government is committed to supporting critical sectors in regional economies while providing skilled workers with clear pathways to permanent residence.

Today, the Honourable Marc Miller, Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship, announced that the federal government has reached an agreement with the Government of Yukon to help temporary workers crucial to economic development in the territory eventually become permanent residents.

This temporary measure will give new work permits to up to 215 temporary workers identified and supported by the Government of Yukon to continue working while they process their permanent residence applications under the Yukon Nominee Program. Eligible individuals have to demonstrate that they meet the criteria and are expected to transition to permanent residence in 2025 and 2026. These skilled workers are filling key job vacancies in Yukon and are actively contributing to Canada's economy and social diversity.

To date, IRCC has worked with Alberta, Manitoba and Yukon to implement this measure in those jurisdictions. IRCC remains open to exploring options with all provinces and territories to transition a greater portion of current temporary residents to permanent residence while addressing their labour market needs.

IRCC will continue to collaborate with provinces and territories to achieve our shared economic immigration objectives.
