2024-2025:

2025 Provincials: Senior (Prepared): Quebec has launched targeted immigration pilot programs to address labour shortages in specific sectors, including healthcare, IT, and construction. These programs offer a streamlined pathway to permanent residency for skilled workers, focusing on candidates with experience in high-demand fields and proficiency in French. This House Supports sector-specific immigration programs over generalimmigration policies. Junior (Prepared): Newfoundland and Labrador and Quebec have signed a memorandum of understanding to replace the contentious 1969 Churchill Falls hydroelectric contract. The new deal is expected to generate C$200 billion in revenue by 2075, providing more favorable terms for Newfoundland and Labrador and including joint development of new projects like the Gull Island facility. This House supports federal involvement in resolving interprovincial disputes over natural resources.
