Ending Employment Barriers for Immigrants with Cross-Sectoral Collaboration

Canada’s diversity is significantly shaped by immigration, with over 485,000 new permanent residents projected in 2024. Many immigrants face job market integration challenges due to credential recognition issues, language barriers, and underemployment.
