Quebec Halts LMIA Processing for Low-Wage Temporary Workers in Montréal

✅Starting September 3, 2024, Quebec will suspend the processing of Labour Market Impact Assessments (LMIAs) for low-wage jobs in Montréal, targeting offers below the province's median hourly wage of $27.47 CAD. This six-month suspension, approved by the federal government, aims to control temporary resident levels and maintain the integrity of the Temporary Foreign Worker Program (TFWP). The suspension excludes higher-wage jobs, those outside Montréal, and specific sectors like agriculture, construction, and healthcare. The decision follows recent scrutiny of the TFWP, particularly its low-wage stream, by Canada's Employment and Immigration Ministers. . Source: www.cicnews.com . .
