How to Find Work in Canada
For those looking to work in Canada a great place to start is with the Atlantic Provinces. This includes Newfoundland and Labrador, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island and Nova Scotia. All of these Provinces fall under the Atlantic Immigration Pilot Program. This program allows employers to bring in foreign workers to work in Canada.
