Immigration a key element of Manitoba’s 2018-2024 labour market forecast.
A total of 168,700 job openings are forecasted for this period.
Immigrants are expected to play an important role in Manitoba’s labour market in the coming years, according to the provincial government’s new seven-year labour market outlook.
A total of 168,700 job openings are forecasted for the period spanning 2018 to 2024, which works out to 24,100 total job openings per year. An almost equal number of new workers — 168,400 — are expected to join Manitoba’s labour force over this seven-year stretch.
Manitoba’s labour market has benefited from record population growth in recent years that the report attributes to the Manitoba Provincial Nominee Program (MPNP), which allows the province to nominate a set number of economic immigration candidates for permanent residence each year.
“Most of this growth is due to a concerted effort by the Manitoba Provincial Nominee Program to use immigration to recruit for labour market and entrepreneurial needs,” the report reads.
It also notes that Manitoba has managed to achieve this population growth “while maintaining the second-lowest unemployment rate and the third-highest labour force participation rate in Canada.”
The report says the younger demographic arriving through immigration has helped push the number of births in the province “to noteworthy levels” and is contributing to an increase in labour supply that is expected to continue over the medium term.
