A Ukrainian refugee who recently arrived in Quebec has been missing since Wednesday evening after he went swimming in a river southeast of Quebec City. Laura Torres, who works with a group that helps immigrants settle into the region, said the young man had fled the war in Ukraine and arrived in Quebec earlier this month. Quebec provincial police said they are looking for a man in his 20s who disappeared after going for a swim in the Etchemin River in St-Anselme, Que., but they have not confirmed his identity.

A press conference in Markham, Ont., last week seemed to offer good news for Hong Kongers hoping to flee the island increasingly under Beijing’s thumb: Canada would lift education requirements for Hong Kong immigrants with Canadian work experience. But the announcement raised eyebrows among pro-democracy advocates.

Members of Yellowknife’s business community are urging the government to stop asking them to prove the city’s labour shortage each time they apply to hire a foreign worker. They say it’s well known that Yellowknife needs more workers and the step that has employers confirm the gap —- a labour market impact assessment (LMIA) — is redundant and slowing down an already cumbersome process.

Saad Iqbal sleeps about five hours per night. Iqbal, who moved to Edmonton in 2021 from Pakistan to study at the University of Alberta, is one of several recent immigrants who say sleep disorders are widespread in Alberta’s international student bodies and in some diaspora communities. Iqbal, vice-president of the U of A’s International Students’ Association, says time-zone differences, part-time jobs, and adjusting to a new environment all contribute to the difficulty some students face getting rest.
