Provincial Nominee Program: Federal Government

federal government: The province had been asking the federal government to increase the number of immigrants it can bring in each year from 4,000 to 6,000, according to CBC. With family members added, the 450 additional immigrants should translate into 1,200 more newcomers a year and Saskatchewan will be allowed to welcome 450 more immigrants each year under the provincial nominee program, according to a new deal with Ottawa. It did not get that, but the federal government has increased Saskatchewan's cap to 4,450 immigrants a year, the province said Tuesday. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
