A new Statistics Canada 2006 report reveals that the province of Manitoba has the highest employment rate in Canada among recent immigrants. In Manitoba, the employment rate among this group is a country-leading 73.1 per cent and its unemployment rate is only 6.8 per cent, the second lowest in Canada.

The Canadian Provincial Nomination Immigration Program allows the individual Provinces to select a number of immigrants each year that have a genuine intention to settle there. In order to apply under the Provincial Nominee Program, applicants must be nominated by a Canadian province or territory. They will assess your application based on their immigration needs.
