On June 24, 2022, the Business Council of Canada (BCC) released a study in which 80 Canadian companies were interviewed about how they utilized Canada’s immigration systems to recruit skilled employees. The businesses surveyed have more than 1.6 million people on their payrolls altogether. According to the survey results, about two-thirds of organizations used Canada’s immigration system to look for individuals outside the country. And only one-third hires people who have already settled in Canada as immigrants.
