Three Quick Growing Industries In Canada, Thanks To Immigrants

One of the many reasons why immigrants choose to go to Canada is because of the country’s economy which is quite strong and stable. Despite the economy being gravely affected during the pandemic, Canada has been able to have a handle on things and has brought the economy back up, with many industries experiencing quick growth.

 

According to many experts, one of the top factors that has helped greatly in the growth of the country’s economy is how it welcomes as many immigrants as it can each year. Based on its Immigration Levels Plan for 2023 to 2025, Canada is planning on bringing in 500,000 new immigrants until 2025. Most of these newcomers are in the country to help fill up any gaps in the labor market.

 

With the help of this group of people, many industries have benefitted a lot. Three of the quickly growing industries in Canada are healthcare, agriculture, and tech, and that is mainly because of the immigrants that are joining the country and sharing their skills and expertise with these industries.

 

Healthcare industry

 

Most Canadians have longer lives, and thus need more medical care as they grow older. With that, more people are needed to be in the healthcare industry to help care for this group of individuals. That is why Canada is doing the best it can to bring in as many healthcare workers as possible to join the country and provide their service to the healthcare industry. At present, among the current number of physicians in the country, more than 35% of them are immigrants. In the case of registered nurses, around 23% of them are immigrants. For dentists, around 39% are immigrants.

 

Agriculture industry

 

The agriculture industry in Canada already has more than 243,000 locals as part of it. However, that is not enough. The industry still needs over 14,000 individuals to help out. But with the immigration plans of the government, farms in Canada should be willing to bring in over 30,000 immigrants to take over any vacancies in this industry. A study also showed that by 2033, around 40% of operators of farms will retire and so the need for more immigrants to start their own farms or greenhouses is high.

 

Tech industry

 

The federal government invested $20 billion in building infrastructure projects and clean electricity. With this, it is seen that such innovations and developments would help grow the tech industry in Canada. Many companies have already chosen Canada as their hub or a great place to have their headquarters. With more tech companies in the country, there is a need for more tech workers, and immigrant workers fit right in. Many immigrants are also keen on joining the industry in Canada as the country is known as one of the top countries in terms of competitiveness in tech innovation and investment.
