The prevalent pandemic situation has created the need to rethink ways to attract immigrants so that economic recovery Canada roadmap can be chalked out with added conviction.

However, accomplishing this plan is not going to be a cakewalk. The officials face the challenge of verifying the authenticity of foreign nationals’ credentials to begin with. Further, creating a welcoming atmosphere for the immigrants is a burning issue to address for Canada that is going the hardships like:
