Western Canada has done a great job by promoting themselves to aspiring and attracting new immigrants settle in those provinces, says a Toronto-based marketing and partnership expert.
The PNP (provincial nominee program) also helped them a lot in terms of encouraging newcomers — but on the other hand Ontario also doesn’t lack employment opportunities and award-winning employers, said Munira Ravji, a marketing and partnership specialist at the Maytree Foundation.
“We need to promote Ontario more aggressively while our employers must consider the hidden talent that is coming into Canada,” said Ravji.

Ravji heads a team of 20 volunteers and manages the council’s media relations and monitoring, events, as well as civic engagements aimed at engaging themselves and help some of their members come out of poverty and to live on their own.
