flag Canada expanded Express Entry to fast-track skilled workers in key sectors, including doctors and pilots, prioritizing Canadian work experience and French language skills.

flag Canada has expanded its Express Entry system to fast-track permanent residency for skilled workers in critical sectors, including foreign-trained doctors, researchers, senior managers, pilots, aircraft mechanics, and military personnel. flag The new pathways prioritize candidates with Canadian work experience, particularly in healthcare, trades, and STEM fields, and emphasize strong French language skills. flag A dedicated stream for up to 5,000 foreign doctors with at least one year of Canadian medical work experience is part of the effort to address physician shortages, though as of mid-February 2026, no invitations have yet been issued. flag The changes support economic growth, national defense, and workforce resilience under the government’s International Talent Attraction Strategy.
