British Columbia Invited 225 Candidates in the Latest PNP Draw
British Columbia continues to play a crucial role in Canada’s immigration landscape, recently conducting a new PNP draw that resulted in the issuance of 225 invitations through various streams of the British Columbia Provincial Nominee Program (BC PNP).
The most recent Express Entry draw held on September 20, 2023, marked a historic moment for the program. It was the first-ever category-based selection draw targeting candidates with experience in transport occupations. IRCC’s decision to focus on this specific sector stems from the pressing need to address an ongoing labor shortage within the transportation industry.
