Quebec seeking skilled migrants for record job vacancies

Quebec is looking for skilled workers to alleviate record job vacancies in the province.

According to a study by the Institute du Quebec, the pandemic transformed the provincial labour market, with public health measures exacerbating previous workforce shortages.

Quebec’s provincial government and the Canadian federal government have put forth a number of measures, such as increasing immigration to support skilled migrants to move to Quebec and fill job vacancies.

Famous New Zealanders – Sir Ernest Rutherford!

Sir Ernest Rutherford is regarded as the father of nuclear physics. He was born in 1871 in Brightwater, near Nelson, and was one of the first international students to obtain a graduate scholarship to Cambridge – without having to go through the undergraduate system!

Having a brilliant scientific mind, Sir Ernest Rutherford made three major discoveries that helped shape modern science as we know it. He was the first person in the world to split an atom and discover its nuclear structure. Moreover, he discovered alpha and beta rays, and put forward the laws of radioactive decay.

Sir Ernest Rutherford was awarded the Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 1908 for his work on radioactive chemistry and the transmutation of elements. He was later knighted in 1914, and remains a true titan in the realms of science.

United States

Biden hoping to address root causes of migration

U.S. President Joe Biden is hoping to address the root causes of migration that force migrants to leave their homes in search of asylum in the United States.

During Joe Biden’s first year in the office, record numbers of migrants attempted to enter the United States from Mexico.

This inflow of migrants piled political pressure on the Democratic President, leading him to secure a $1.2 billion private-sector investment in Central America to create new jobs and opportunities for people in that region.
