加拿大把乡村社区移民试点转为永久项目:首批14个社区继续参加,移民计划为其留5,500个名额

加拿大移民、难民和公民部(IRCC)部长 Lena Metlege Diab 11月9日在加拿大新斯科舍省 Pictou County 宣布,加拿大政府已把乡村社区移民试点转为永久项目,为面临长期劳动力短缺的乡村与偏远社区提供一条长期的人才引进通道。
这一宣布与加拿大2026年预算的安排一致:把移民重点放到最能支撑经济的地方,包括面临持续劳动力短缺的小型、乡村和偏远社区。新的乡村社区移民项目由雇主与社区主导,在此前试点成功的基础上,为重点行业的技术工人和国际毕业生提供在乡村及较小社区取得永久居留的通道。
项目将先由目前参加试点的14个社区继续参加,今后计划扩至更多社区。要加入的社区人口须在20万以下,并属于加拿大统计局偏远指数衡量的偏远社区。按加拿大2027至2029年移民数量计划,今年的计划为这个永久项目留出5,500个名额。
乡村社区移民试点于2025年1月启动;其前身是2019至2024年运行的乡村与北方移民试点。Diab 表示,把试点转为永久项目,与今年移民数量计划中稳定接收目标、继续把移民导向最需要的地方的方针相辅相成。

Canada Makes Rural Community Immigration Pilot Permanent, With 5,500 Admission Spaces Targeted
The Honourable Lena Metlege Diab, Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship, announced on November 9 in Pictou County, Nova Scotia, that the Government of Canada has made the Rural Community Immigration Pilot a permanent program.
As announced in Budget 2026, Canada is refocusing immigration to where it can best support the economy, including in smaller, rural and remote communities facing persistent labour shortages. The new Rural Community Immigration Program is an employer- and community-led program that gives skilled workers and international graduates in priority sectors a pathway to permanent residence in rural and smaller communities.
The program intends to continue with the 14 communities currently taking part in the pilot, with an expansion to additional communities planned in the future. Through this year's immigration levels plan, 5,500 admission spaces are targeted for the permanent Rural Community Immigration Program.
Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada has run the Rural Community Immigration Pilot since January 2025; its predecessor, the Rural and Northern Immigration Pilot, ran from 2019 to 2024.
