Canada Launches Innovation Stream Pilot For Foreign Workers
Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) has introduced the Innovation Stream Pilot, a groundbreaking initiative aimed at enhancing Canada’s economic competitiveness.
Integrated with the Global Hypergrowth Project (GHP), this program streamlines the process for Canadian businesses to recruit highly skilled foreign workers, eliminating the need for a Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA).
Successful applicants may receive work permits valid for up to five years.

Participating companies include Ada, AlayaCare, CellCarta, Clarius, Clio, DPG (Duchesnay Pharmaceuticals Group), Lightspeed, and Vive.
