International students immigrating to Canada transition directly to work permits, following the completion of a degree or course of study. These work permits are unrestricted, but to obtain this permit you are required to be eligible for a post-graduation work permit.

The Canadian government recently changed the eligibility requirements for granting international students a PGWP permit after graduation, focusing on criteria related to the profession, French speakers and on a province-based basis.

Graduates of foreign international students can also obtain permanent residency, through the Express Entry system or other provincial programs, by working with a post-graduation work permit (PGWP) and gaining work experience in Canada, which is one of the most important paths to obtaining permanent residency from the first day of graduation.

The individual obtains many benefits after obtaining permanent residency in Canada, as he has the right to work, live and study in any province, in addition to the person with permanent residency obtaining protection under Canadian law.

Among the benefits that a Canadian permanent resident receives is access to health care benefits and social services provided by the Government of Canada, and they are also entitled to apply to become Canadian citizens when they are registered as residents of the country for a pre-determined period of time.

It is worth noting that Canadian law does not give holders of permanent residency in Canada the right to vote in elections held in Canada

AU Agenda 2063: Nigeria Recommends Key Implementation Strategies, Capacity Building

Published

on

By Gloria Ikibah
Nigeria has recommended some strategies to support the realization of the African Union’s (AU) Agenda 2063, ans among these are the creation of regional centres of excellence to strengthen technological capacity, development of innovative financial models, and introduction of incentives to encourage public-private partnerships (PPP) for infrastructure development.
These were the suggestions highlighted by the Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Rep. Benjamin Kalu, during his speech at the 12th Annual Conference of Speakers of National and Regional Parliaments held at the Pan-African Parliament (PAP) in Midrand, South Africa.
Naijablitznews.com reports that Agenda 2063 is a 50-year strategic plan aimed at transforming Africa into a global powerhouse, adopted in 2013 and it outlines the continent’s aspirations for inclusive and sustainable development. The agenda also identifies key flagship programmes designed to accelerate Africa’s economic growth and transformation.
Kalu stressed the importance of making Agenda 2063 widely recognized across Africa and highlighted the need for sufficient funding to ensure its success.
“We are pursuing this agenda, but there are challenges, especially around financing. The question is, how do we make Agenda 2063 a household project without adequate funding?” Kalu remarked.
He emphasized that Africa cannot rely solely on external sources and must take ownership of financing the agenda.
The Deputy Speaker also proposed that Africa explore public-private partnerships (PPP) to raise funds for infrastructure projects aligned with Agenda 2063, possibly offering tax incentives to participants. He also suggested that Africa establish centres of excellence across the regions to build capacity in technology and knowledge, ensuring that the continent can fully own and implement the project.
Furthermore, he pointed out the potential overlap between Agenda 2063 and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in areas such as healthcare, and urged that Africa prioritize objectives outside the SDGs to enhance efficiency.
“To drive Agenda 2063, we must have the necessary capacity. We cannot borrow knowledge from outside the continent to implement our own agenda,” Kalu added.
