Canada will speed up permanent residency for some foreigners
Ottawa says it will speed up permanent resident applications for certain classes of foreign workers and international students who have Canadian work experience. In an announcement on August 12, Diane Finley, Minister of Citizenship and Immigration, said the ‘Canadian Experience Class,' would have a "new avenue" for immigration.

The ‘Canadian Experience Class' will allow certain temporary foreign workers and certain foreign student graduates with managerial, professional, or technical or trade work experience to apply to become permanent residents, and eventually Canadian citizens.
"This new proposed avenue for immigration would also go further to spread the benefits of immigration into smaller centers across Canada," Finley said making the announcement at the University of Waterloo surrounded by international students.
