C'è stato Molte buone notizie per gli imprenditori canadesi, in particolare per immigrati e potenziali immigrati che vogliono avviare attività in Canada o lavorare nel settore tecnologico del paese.

But immigration policies are in flux, troppo, so you’ll need to keep on top of the changes.

Here’s a round-up of some recent news:

In a dispatch from the Congresso mondiale per l'informazione Technologe, tenuta recentemente a Montreal, TechVibes quoted a number of entrepreneurs who believe that Il Canada è un posto incredibile per lanciare una startup. “There are challenges to building companies in Canada,” the article noted, “But those challenges are no greater than ones faced elsewhere in the world.”

This article, Canada cerca di attirare professionisti della tecnologia, from a Canada immigration newsletter, reports on Canada’s job market for technology and science professionals. E sì, it says that that market is good!

L' Financial Post reports on Calgary’s business culture and on Calgary perché è il sogno di un imprenditore.

In Ontario, the Kitchener-Waterloo region fosters a culture of startups.

Anche in Ontario, several programs are helping match immigrants with small business jobs. These programs include:

• il Colmare Programma per Educato internazionale professionale alla York University, which provides courses and support services to assist people educated elsewhere in making the transition to working in Canada.
• ACCES occupazione, which offers a range of free employment services to job-seekers.
• Toronto Regione immigrati sull'occupazione del Consiglio (TRIEC), which helps match immigrants with mentors and potential internship opportunities, and also assists companies in hiring and managing a diverse pool of employees. (You can read more about TRIEC and its programs in this Yonge Street media feature on “Saltare gli ostacoli della diversità.”)
