On October 8, 2025, the Manitoba Provincial Nominee Program (MPNP) secured an additional 1,489 nominations from Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC), raising its 2025 total allocation to 6,239.

This 31% increase comes as welcome news following January's initial allocation of 4,750 nominations, which represented a 50% reduction compared to 2024 levels.

Provincial officials point out that the enhanced allocation will significantly strengthen the province's capacity to address critical labour shortages and advance key economic priorities through targeted immigration initiatives.
