What is RNIP?
The RNIP is a community-driven immigration initiative aimed at attracting and retaining skilled workers in designated rural and northern communities. Unlike other immigration programs, RNIP focuses on providing a pathway to permanent residency for individuals who want to live and work in communities outside major urban centers. This program helps address specific labor needs while supporting the social and economic development of participating regions.
