Там было много хороших новостей для канадских предпринимателей, особенно для иммигрантов и потенциальных иммигрантов, которые хотят начать бизнес в Канаде или работать в технологическом секторе страны.

But immigration policies are in flux, слишком, so you’ll need to keep on top of the changes.

Here’s a round-up of some recent news:

In a dispatch from the Всемирный конгресс по информационной Технологи, состоявшейся недавно в Монреале, TechVibes quoted a number of entrepreneurs who believe that Канада является восхитительным местом для запуска стартапа. “There are challenges to building companies in Canada,” the article noted, “But those challenges are no greater than ones faced elsewhere in the world.”

This article, Канада стремится привлечь технологии специалистов, from a Canada immigration newsletter, reports on Canada’s job market for technology and science professionals. И да, it says that that market is good!

The Финансовый Сообщение reports on Calgary’s business culture and on почему Калгари мечта предпринимателя.

В Онтарио, the Kitchener-Waterloo region fosters a culture of startups.

Кроме того, в Онтарио, several programs are helping match immigrants with small business jobs. These programs include:

• the Преодоление Программу международном Образование Профессиональное в Йоркском университете, which provides courses and support services to assist people educated elsewhere in making the transition to working in Canada.
• ACCES занятости, which offers a range of free employment services to job-seekers.
• Торонто Регион иммигрантов Совет занятости (TRIEC), which helps match immigrants with mentors and potential internship opportunities, and also assists companies in hiring and managing a diverse pool of employees. (You can read more about TRIEC and its programs in this Yonge Street Медиа feature on “Прыжки Разнообразие препятствий.”)
