: You want to hire a new immigrant or refugee and you want to offer them a first experience, then the government is ready to subsidize about $15,000, he said, according to CTV. Hamad said the provincial government will do everything it can to ensure refugees do not face discrimination while trying to find work. "For us it is very important to recognize the education or diploma that these people had before. He is promoting a program already in place to help immigrants. It very important, it the key of the success," said Hamad. "If you are an engineer in your other country and you come to Canada, you hope that you are going to work in your own sector." He added that the provincial government is working on ways to make sure that educational equivalencies are recognized by Quebec employers and associations. "We actually have a committee working on it. They might have to have some schooling to be recognized as an engineer or pharmacist, added Immigration Minister Kathleen Weil. We know that it not easy," said Hamad. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
