Canada offers work permits to spouses of Indian expats, as it tackles labour shortage

Around 1,30,000 Indians secured work permits in Canada under the international mobility program last year, while reports also suggest that 100,000 moved there as temporary foreign workers. The massive influx is a result of Canada’s move to ease immigration. Even before the Indian expats get permanent residency in Canada, they can call their spouses there thanks to work permits for family members of temporary workers.
