Life on the Prairies

If you are looking to immigrate to Canada or relocate from a major urban center to a smaller community then press play. In "Let's find your Canadian town" podcast series. We look at what some people never consider and that is the importance of the "great outdoors" as well as we review the benefits of living in an affordable town. Sure my podcast covers immigration issues and pathways but I truly feel there is a lack of understanding and awareness of all the opportunities in a small town! With this in mind, I want to introduce you to the benefits and get to know rural Canada a bit better.I hope you take some time to join me, your prairie girl, Lindsay Rubeniuk, to discover the great life that is waiting for you! Contact Information100meridian.ca (website)[email protected] (email) 100th Meridian Immigration Enquiry form (Relocation or Immigration) Resourceshttps://bestdiplomats.org/small-cities-in-canada/https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship.htmlCredits: The Time It Takes | Kayla Luky (bandcamp.com)Grow Media Group: Dauphin, MB | Digital Marketing

Join me as I take an in-depth look at the IRCC's Rural Community Immigration Pilot specifically the Call For Proposals (CFP). This episode is great for those communities interested in applying and those newcomers who want to know how this initiative will work. I will walk through each of the topics within the CFP and provide a bit of insight into how immigration works, why this will benefit rural communities and get into detail of what IRCC is expecting. I will also give my thoughts as to perhaps why some communities may just be better positioned than others. The rural community immigration pilot aims to ensure that rural communities continue to have the ability to access programs that address labour shortages and help local businesses find the workers they need. It will provide pathways to permanent residence for newcomers who can help to overcome critical labour job shortages and want to live long term in these smaller communities.The successful communities will launch their own immigration initiatives in the fall of 2024. In a future episode I will look at how this process may work for those in Canada but are here temporarily. Being a rural person who currently lives & works in a rural Canadian town I will give you an insight into rural Canada and its possibilities!  Resources100meridian.ca Community Rural Immigration June 14th webinar (Registration Link)IRCC's Community Application (CFP)Index of RemotenessImmigration & Rural CanadaTakeaways Read the application (Call for Proposals) from start to finish before you dive in. Be honest with yourself if your community is ready to apply; Know what you need and who you need, gather and brain-storm (involve those who need to be involved).  Make sure you have an inventory of your community's infrastructure & social services; Ensure that every partner understand their role in the project.

If your business is short on skilled workers or if you are an international graduate in Canada with a PGWP than perhaps you should connect with each other. A Post-Graduate Worker Permit is permitted to those individuals who have come to Canada and successfully completed a college or university program. People who hold a PGWP are hard-working and driven people who would love to stay and work in Canada. Seeing that businesses throughout the prairies are struggling to obtain skilled workers this is a great opportunity for you to attract these motivated individuals. Further as an employer you can nominate the skilled worker for Permanent Residency with no cost to you! It truly is a win-win, what business doesn't want a hard-working, motivated employee and what international graduate doesn't want a great career to live and work on in the Prairies!
