CIC Confirms Extension of IT Worker Program in Quebec and British Columbia
Last year, Human Resources and Skills Development Canada announced that on September 30, 2010, the IT Worker Program would come to an end, except for employers wishing to hire foreign workers for positions in British Columbia and Quebec, where the program was expected to remain in place for a limited time after September 30, 2010. Citizenship and Immigration Canada has now confirmed that the IT Worker Program will continue in Quebec until further notice and in British Columbia until September 30, 2011. Our IT Worker Program article has been updated to reflect this fact.
