Holders of Canadian visitor visas will not be able to apply for a work permit within the country
This is coming amidst recent immigration reforms that have sparked protests, especially amongst international students.
The Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada in a statement on Wednesday said it will discontinue the policy that allows visitors to get a work permit with immediate effect.
“While the temporary policy was set to expire on February 28, 2025, IRCC is ending the policy as part of our overall efforts to recalibrate the number of temporary residents in Canada and preserve the integrity of the immigration system,” the statement read.
