Financial Post – Ontario Makes It Easier for Immigrants to Get Jobs, but Hurdles Remain
Nirmal Kumar, who arrived in Ontario last November with hopes of a better life, was ready to spend at least two years to get the required licence that would allow him to work in his field as a civil engineer. This, after working as an engineer for more than a decade in Dubai and India. Nevertheless, Kumar heaved a sigh of relief in May when the Ontario association responsible for licensing engineers removed the requirement for applicants to have at least 12 months of Canadian work experience in response to legislation introduced by the provincial government.

An expanded program would allow people to instead apply for an electronic travel authorization: a digital travel document that costs $7 and can be processed in minutes. Travellers from the 13 countries can qualify for the faster, cheaper option if they have either held a Canadian visa in the last 10 years or currently hold a non-immigrant visa to the United States and are travelling by air.
Karm Singh Gill filed the lawsuit against Suraj Jasra and his business, Canadian Pathway Immigration Services, last month through lawyer Joshua Slayen at Vancouver-based Coal Harbour Law. According to his statement of claim, Gill had started working at Route Link Logistics in Winnipeg in February 2022.
