Abstract

The Canadian-born work force is aging, baby boomers are retiring and the number of young workers entering the work force is declining. Many employers across the country are already experiencing skilled labour shortages. Statistics Canada research indicates that before the middle of the next decade, almost all labour force growth will come from immigration. Many employers do not know that there are ITWs ready and willing to work in Canada. These are people who were educated and trained in other countries and whose work experience was gained outside of Canada.
