Quebec to reform the Quebec Experience Program
On May 28, 2020, the Quebec Minister of Immigration, Francization and Integration (MIFI) Simon Jolin-Barrette announced the plan to reform the Quebec Experience Program (PEQ). The main reason for reforming the program is a better integration into the labour market. The renewed PEQ will have four objectives: better integration of the immigrants into the labour market; a more efficient selection to meet the needs of the labour market; a competence in French which facilitates integration; and reinforced program integrity. In addition, following the similar trends in the English provinces, Quebec intends to launch two immigration pilots. One will target nurse’s aides and the other will be developed for various tech workers.
