Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney says his government’s upcoming budget will introduce an immigration plan that includes a talent attraction strategy.
Carney made the announcement in a speech Wednesday night, confirming an earlier report. The live prime-time address was unusual for a Canadian prime minister and aimed to lay out his economic vision for the country.
"To match immigration levels with our needs and our capacity, the budget will include Canada’s new immigration plan to do better — for newcomers, for everyone,” he said, adding it will also have a "talent strategy,” skills training and apprenticeships for scientists and innovators.
