New Brunswick has made it harder for potential immigrants to find work
Potential immigrants have found it harder to find work in New Brunswick after the province imposed new restrictions to protect jobs for Canadians.
Foreign nationals looking to relocate to the Canadian Atlantic province of New Brunswick are facing new restrictions on their job search as the provincial government attempts to protect the employment prospects of Canadians.
Businesses in New Brunswick are just now starting to reopen. As the province rebuilds, it is trying to preserve the few jobs that exist for Canadians already living in New Brunswick.
"Businesses have cut services, laid off staff, and in some cases closed," the government news release said. — Some sectors were hit harder than others. Some occupations in these sectors were particularly vulnerable to changes in employment status".
The health and information technology sectors have been spared from restrictions. The Province continues to accept and process applications for all immigration flows under the Atlantic Immigration Pilot and the Provincial Immigration Program from applicants from around the world with both health and information technology professions.
Temporary foreign workers and foreign students already living and working in New Brunswick are also exempt from these restrictions.
