British Columbia and Manitoba invited candidates in draws held from May 23 to June 2 under the Provincial Nominee Program (PNP).
These draws took place around the same time new selection categories are announced for Express Entry candidates by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC). The Provincial Nominee Program candidates are also included in the new selection categories.
As stated by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC), Express Entry PNP draws will continue to take place, and not all draws which are going forward will be for the new categories. Selection category draws have mirrored a lot of PNP streams.
Except Quebec and Nunavut, all of the territories and provinces of Canada held Provincial Nominee Program draws to invite candidates for specific National Occupational Classification (NOC) codes or in specific occupational fields.
There are PNP immigration streams specifically for healthcare or tech workers in most provinces. For healthcare workers, targets were held by British Columbia almost every week. The provincial and federal governments have immigration as a shared responsibility.
Provincial Nominee Program permits the provincial governments to nominate economic immigrants who the government feels will be able to economically establish themselves within the province. Candidates are also allowed to be efficiently targeted by the provinces, those who can help fill the regional job vacancies.
