What is the SINP Entrepreneur Program?

The experienced business owners or senior business managers who seek to live in Saskatchewan are targeted by this stream. Successful candidates may launch a new business or buy an existing one and then start their day to day management duties. 


After managing a business successfully for 6 months the entrepreneur may be nominated for permanent residence status. Candidates can submit an expression of interest, after submitting a profile candidates are assigned a score based on SINP entrepreneur ranking system. The candidates with the most competitive score are invited to submit an application for the Saskatchewan Entrepreneur Program.

  • Submission of an Expression of Interest (EOI) to the SINP.

  • Selection of Expressions of Interest and Invitation to Submit an Application

  • Applications are processed in the order they are received once candidates are asked to apply.

  • Establishment of a business.

  • Nomination.

IRCC sets new wage rules for employers recruiting temporary foreign workers

IRCC sets new wage rules for employers recruiting temporary foreign workers From January 1, 2024, employers recruiting through the Temporary Foreign Worker Program (TFWP) must adjust foreign workers' wages to match updated prevailing rates, as per Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC). Although some employers are exempt, this usually requires a Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA). The Job Bank updates provincial wage differences annually.  Canada is inviting foreign workers to boost its economy amid labor shortages, with potential losses of $38 billion due to shortages, as the Canadian Federation of Independent Business (CFIB) reported.

If Canada poaches Dreamers, the US will face significant economic losses as Canada reaps the benefits of highly productive US-trained immigrants. Canada has stepped up its efforts in recent months to deliberately recruit immigrants with prior education or work experienc...
