Нова імміграційна програма від провінції Манітоба
On Friday, November 15, the Manitoba government announced a three-year pilot to address labour market shortages in the rural west-central region.
The West Central Immigration Initiative pilot will see the province collaborate with seven rural municipalities and Gambler First Nation.
The West-Central Immigration Initiative partners are
Municipality of Russell-Binscarth;
Rural Municipality of Yellowhead;
Municipality of Roblin;
Rural Municipality of Ellice-Archie;
Rural Municipality of Riding Mountain West;
Rossburn Municipality;
Prairie View Municipality; and
Gambler First Nation.
According to a survey of 85 employers in the region, approximately 240-300 people will be needed over the next three years to meet labour needs due to new jobs, replacements, retirements, and general growth.
According to Manitoba Minister of Labour and Immigration, Malaya Marcelino, this pilot will help address labour market and success planning needs, and enable economic and community growth.
As Marcelino states, the new initiative helps in “responding to local needs for skilled workers in rural Manitoba and ensuring Manitoba continues to be a welcoming province.”
