News of the week: work in Canada and Olympic gold
The week of August 2-8 will definitely remain in the country's history.
Immigration news
The past week has been pleasing with a lot of immigration shenanigans:
- British Columbia invited 374 candidates;
- Saskatchewan selected 452 professionals with in-demand occupations;
- in two Express Entry drawings received invitations to 512 provincial program participants and 3,000 candidates with Canadian experience;
- Manitoba wowed 375 people;
- Alberta has selected 148 applicants for the PML.
Jobs in Canada
If you have tried applying to jobs with Canadian employers, you have probably seen that they simply do not respond. If the resume is written to all Canadian standards and the skills and experience meet the requirements, there may be another problem. A research company conducted a survey of Canadian employers and found that job seekers often lack "soft skills".
And the province of Quebec has decided to make it easier to hire foreign employees with in-demand occupations, including low-skilled ones.
Life in Canada
Working in Canada is very promising, and there is clear evidence of this. A survey conducted by Canadian real estate operators found that half of Canadian youth have their own home, and most of those who have not yet bought a property plan to do so in the coming years. Young people say they are confident about their financial future.

Canadian immigrants are making history! Last week, Canada took gold in the 100-metre race thanks to athlete Andre De Grasse. His parents once came to the country from small islands in the Caribbean.
