Newcomers to the eastern Ontario region can look toward Local Immigration Partnerships (LIP) to get settled, get connected and get a job.
When you’re new to Canada, you have the opportunity to fulfill life goals and join the Ontario workforce or become a small business owner and enhance neighbourhoods and share in community success. That’s why LIPs, funded by the Ministry of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada, are a key first connection for you. LIPs help you find the right fit for your family in eastern Ontario, from your working goals to your lifestyle needs.
LIPs ease the transition for newcomers to eastern Ontario. Businesses, community leaders, social organizations and training facilities work together to identify the needs of their communities.
Then, they determine how they can help newcomers access what they need to be successful within those communities.
If you’re a newcomer to Canada and want to know what communities have to offer for housing, wages, and quality of life, you can find that information. Since April 2020, LIPs have worked to actively improve the newcomer experience in eastern Ontario to address service gaps.
LIPs make it easier for newcomers to Canada to find success living and working in eastern Ontario.
