Canada Opens Recruitment For Health, Social Services And Other Skilled Workers — by InfoGuru118(op): 6:35pm On Aug 25
Canada is inviting skilled professionals in the health care and social services sectors to explore immigration opportunities as the country works to address workforce shortages.

Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) announced the initiative in a post on X, calling on qualified professionals with the required training, credentials and work experience to explore available immigration pathways.

Professionals being sought include:

The invitation is open to qualified professionals from around the world, meaning eligible Nigerians with the required qualifications and experience can also explore the available pathways.

According to IRCC, the initiative is aimed at attracting skilled workers who can help fill gaps in Canada’s health care workforce and provide essential services to Canadians.

Who Can Apply?
Interested professionals must have the relevant training, credentials and professional experience required for their occupation.

However, meeting the professional requirements does not automatically guarantee permanent residence or a job in Canada. Applicants must determine which immigration pathway applies to their individual circumstances and meet all applicable requirements.

How to Apply
Interested Nigerian health care and social service professionals should explore Canada’s official immigration pathways to determine their eligibility.

Applicants should also be prepared to meet any applicable requirements relating to professional licensing, credential recognition, language proficiency, work experience and immigration eligibility.

Note: This is an immigration opportunity for qualified professionals and is not a general visa programme for all Nigerians. Eligibility depends on the applicant’s qualifications, occupation, experience and the requirements of the specific immigration pathway, apply for this opportunity below and get full eligibility guidelines as well.

Thank you for the notification but you can make it more comprehensive by listing a few or some of the health, social and skilled workers that are eligible and where to apply.
Anyway, thanks again.

Let’s call a spade a spade and say it out the way it is!

They are looking for slaves!

The unemployment rate in Canada is on the high side that you would even find online videos about it. If the jobs are there, why aren’t their own citizens taking up that job instead of seeking foreign intervention?

Yes, they are not trained but a country like Canada has the capability to train them and get them to work within same processing time they approve a foreigner.

This Caucasians aren’t fools. They know exactly what they doing.

Canada is so overrated except if you are a healthcare worker. Indians have taken over virtually every sector and they have gradually introduced nepotism because they dominate every sector.

Canada is a good country but once you enter, you will be competing with different immigrants from different parts of the world for the few jobs available

In addition majority of the jobs gives preference to Canadian work experience & Canadian degrees or certification, so it is a long wilderness journey to secure a good job in Canada without Canadian work experience & Canadian degrees or certification.

But it is absolutely a good country that gives you opportunities and hope to realize your potentials

Again, Regulated professions like STEM professional, will need a lot of patience to pass all the exams to qualify to practice,

Well, goodluck to those that have the funds to apply and travel.


As for us here, We are trying to fight for the soul of Nigeria, so the doctors, engineers and other artisans that japa can come back to Nigeria without fear of been kidnapped or kill. With good salary too

No place like home

Piece of advice. I am in Canada 🇨🇦, this story is a lie, scam and untrue they use this as a means to deceive people ans collect their money. LMIA isnt working anymore. If you want to come to Canada, just apply through express entry and do the exams.

I saw a video of a nurse on IG yesterday saying she is being searching for a job for over one year. There were nurses in the comment section saying how difficult it has been. I thought nurses were in high demand.

These are nurses that also have Canadian license. If nurses are finding it hard to get jobs, then i don't know what else to say.

Re: Canada Opens Recruitment For Health, Social Services And Other Skilled Workers — by SIRTee15: 7:17pm On Aug 25
Canada is not what is used to be anymore. In the last 10 years it gone seriously downhill. Trump economic warfare is not helping matters thus economic outlook is very unpredictable. Most companies may eventually fold up or move to USA.

Moreover, the massive immigration policy of Trudeau did not correlate with economic opportunity so we have far too many people chasing fewer good jobs.

Except Nigeria is already a dead end , I would not advise anyone to consider Canada. Spending over 50 million to leave a very good job and relocate to Canada in 2026 is not a wise decision.

They would end up keeling themselves over corruptions, lies and greediness. Naigeerian and Naigeerian never ever go into business together. It never works.
Re: Canada Opens Recruitment For Health, Social Services And Other Skilled Workers — by LordLicifer(m):
Canada looking for cheap labour from 3rd world countries. Maybe if they paid their citizens good wages they would do these jobs. Healthcare work isn't easy, long hours night and irregular shifts.

Good luck with Canada. The entire western world actually.
Re: Canada Opens Recruitment For Health, Social Services And Other Skilled Workers — by LagbajaTheBEREAN: 7:44pm On Aug 25
If you wanna leave please do and be ready to work hard. Last time I checked there's no country that cater to idle hands.

Even Indians are already fleeing.

But I tell you today, Canada is on a path to heights.

Not a financial advice, but I will appreciate if you buy it.


The US has pushed Canada and the country is now aligning with Europe and Asia. She has the resources to make up for demands that was previously all channeled to the US.

If the deal between US and Canada COMPLETELY collapses has it has done in previous negotiation, then Canada is a place to go bury that money. The pain will come, but the gains will be like money rituals.

Canadians will do it at the right sustainable price and terms.

It’s like the H1B. It’s a slavery ticket!

Lol... Rubbishing every nation abroad to justify the horrendous mediocrity in your own nation is quite stale at this point.

Find something better to do with your time.

If my truth hurts you, I am deeply sorry.

It’s my duty as a citizen of our great country to enlighten people.

Letting them know the baits of foreign travels- A world where you have everything and own nothing.

Slavery never ended, the chains became credits, mortgages and citizenship.

In US, it is the H1B. It is still same path.

If you conversant with terrains, Do you think a software engineer on H1B earns same salary as a software engineer who is a citizen? Both within the US?

Facebook and X tell you the expertise not in the country, don’t believe that as someone who knows the best universities in the world are in the US.

H1B is a slavery ticket. You are BOUND to slave for that company till you get your PR which takes yeaaaars!
