British Columbia joins the federal pilot pathway for skilled refugees- EMPP
British Columbia is participating in the Economic Mobility Pathways Pilot (EMPP), as a partner with Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada to allow skilled refugees to immigrate under the BC Provincial Nominee Program (BC PNP).
