Want to Live, Study, and Work in Canada? Labor Shortage Makes Country Flexible on Working Hours, See What Has Changed!

Before the measure adopted by the Government, the limit was 20 hours of work per week during class periods and 40 hours during vacations. The statement signed by Canada’s immigration minister, Sean Fraser, says that the measure aims to alleviate the labor shortage faced by the country, which has been exacerbated by the Covid-19 pandemic.
This is an entry point for Brazilian students who want to live in Canada, as the student visa issued in Brazil allows work even after the course completion.
