Quebec expanded the Temporary Foreign Worker Program
On November 2, 2021, the Government of Quebec published a press release announcing the expansion of the Temporary Foreign Worker Program (TFWP). As a result of agreements made between Quebec and the Federal Government in August 2021, the province added over 30 new occupations that will be eligible for facilitated processing under the TFWP and submitted to the federal government. The proposal has been awaited by Quebec’s business community to solve the labour shortage in businesses. A new agreement is expected to be concluded in the upcoming weeks.
