2019秋 加拿大联邦移民新政：乡村及北部边远地区移民试点项目

乡村及北部边远地区移民试点项目是一条联邦技术移民的新途径，主要由申请人在社区找到相关工作后，由社区担保推荐移民，其目的是繁荣边远小型社区的经济和改善人口分布。该项目将在2019年底由移民部正式公布实施细则。获得此类移民的申请人，需要搬到社区长期生活和工作。

The Rural and Northern Immigration Pilot is a community-driven program. It’s designed to spread the benefits of economic immigration to smaller communities by creating a path to permanent residence for skilled foreign workers who want to work and live in 1 of the participating communities.

由于加拿大人口老化，出生率下降，边远地区的劳力剧减。这项移民为边远社区驱动经济发展和增加中产阶级类别（NOC-B 以上）的工作机会提供助益。

As the Canadian population ages and the birth rate declines, rural Canada’s workforce has seen a significant decrease in available workers. This pilot will help attract people that are needed to drive economic growth and help support middle-class jobs in these communities.
