US Visa Hike: Canada's Skilled Worker Opportunity | JQJO

President Trump's steep increase in H-1B visa fees is prompting calls for Canada to attract skilled workers leaving the US. While Canada's Prime Minister acknowledged the opportunity, experts caution about Canada's own immigration challenges, including difficulties obtaining permanent residency and a potentially less predictable system than the US. Despite these concerns, Canada's existing programs, like Express Entry and Global Skills Strategy, offer pathways for skilled workers, and some believe Canada is well-positioned to benefit from the situation, particularly given past instances of US companies relocating skilled workers to Canada due to immigration restrictions.
