20 February 2025 | Morganvij Immigration Services
The Canadian government is on a mission to encourage young Canadians to broaden their horizons and gain global experience! 🗺️
The Honourable Marc Miller, Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship, has officially launched an immersive marketing campaign for the International Experience Canada (IEC) program. The initiative aims to motivate Canadian youth to explore international work and travel opportunities, empowering them to build valuable skills and global networks.
🌟 What is the International Experience Canada (IEC) Program?
IEC is a unique program that offers young Canadians (aged 18 to 35) the chance to work and travel abroad in over 35 countries and territories through reciprocal agreements. It allows Canadian youth to gain global work experience while welcoming international youth to explore job opportunities in Canada.
This program is not just about travel—it’s about personal growth, skill development, and boosting employability in an increasingly global job market. 🌐💼
🚀 High-Demand Occupations & Labour Shortages by Sector
Several industries across the EU are experiencing critical worker shortages. The most affected occupational groups include:
1️⃣ Immersive Cultural Exhibits in Toronto & Vancouver
The campaign brings interactive exhibits to life, showcasing five IEC partner countries:
🇧🇪 Belgium | 🇫🇮 Finland | 🇮🇹 Italy | 🇰🇷 South Korea | 🇳🇿 New Zealand
These hands-on exhibits highlight the rich cultures, work opportunities, and unique lifestyles of these countries. Attendees can get a taste of life abroad, helping them choose their ideal destination.

Digital Experience for All of Canada 💻

Minister Marc Miller emphasized that this campaign isn’t just about work and travel—it’s about unlocking life-changing opportunities.
“This campaign is about more than just promoting work and travel abroad—it is about unlocking possibilities for young Canadians so that they have the chance to gain the skills and experiences they need to be competitive in today’s job market.”
