Community News Desk: In a major move that will benefit thousands of Bangladeshi professionals and other foreigners in Canada, the North American country will expand its work permit eligibility to the family members of Open Work Permit (OWP) holders from next year to address acute labour shortages, PTI reported.
The OWP allows foreign nationals to work in Canada for any employer and any job.
