On September 18, 2023, the Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC), Marc Miller, announced the first category-based draw in the Express Entry system for newcomers with work experience in transport occupations.

This initiative focuses on attracting skilled workers in the transport sector, including truck drivers, pilots, and aircraft assembly workers.

The goal is to address labour shortages and support economic goals by inviting candidates with specific work experience or French language ability to apply for permanent residence.

Canada's Express Entry system provides a streamlined pathway for skilled individuals in critical fields.

By prioritizing the invitation of skilled newcomers in transport occupations, Canada aims to meet the demand for talent and fill key positions that contribute to economic growth.
