The Canadian embassy allegedly claimed, "The applicants were vetted down to roughly 5,000 but we had everyone from truck drivers to French teachers to doctors, nurses, and all types of individuals." "At Immigration and Population Growth, it is our responsibility to attract the qualified individuals that Nova Scotia requires to expand our economy."
