LMIA Crackdown! How New Rules Are Forcing Low-Wage Workers Out of Canada | Canada Immigration 2024

🎥 Welcome back to Canada Chronicles! In today’s video, we're breaking down the 2024 Canadian immigration updates focusing on the new Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) restrictions. These rules are making it increasingly difficult for low-wage temporary foreign workers to stay in Canada, impacting sectors from hospitality to construction.

🔍 What We Cover:

• Stricter caps on low-wage workers: The new LMIA regulations have reduced the cap on low-wage temporary foreign workers from 20% to 10% of an employer's workforce, prioritizing Canadian citizens and permanent residents over temporary workers.
• Reduced employment duration: Changes in Canada work permit policies now limit low-wage workers to only one year of employment before needing renewal, adding layers of uncertainty and instability to their lives in Canada.
• Regional impacts and exemptions: How these LMIA rules suspend processing for low-wage positions in regions with high unemployment and the exemptions granted to crucial sectors like agriculture and healthcare, crucial for Canada's economic impact and foreign labor.
• Advocacy for changes: Discussion on the push by advocacy groups for reforms, including the introduction of open work permits to enhance job security and flexibility, potentially shaping a new Canada PR pathway for 2024.

🇨🇦 Stay tuned as we explore how these sweeping changes are creating a divide between high-wage and low-wage workers, and what that means for Canada's immigration system in 2024.
