Ontario has the most trucking job vacancies in Canada

Ontario has a high demand for qualified workers to fill trucking jobs, making it a great opportunity for foreigners under economic immigration programs. Job Bank listed 882 trucking jobs in late May under the National Occupational Classification 2021 code 73300.  The Greater Toronto Area has the most trucking job opportunities, with 56% of the positions in the province. Truckers in Ontario can earn a median hourly wage of $24, which can go up to $32.34 per hour, leading to an annual wage scale of up to $63,063 for a standard 37.5-hour work week. However, truck drivers frequently receive kilometer-based bonuses that increase their pay dramatically. Both the federal and provincial governments have been assisting with immigration policies to grant work permits and permanent residence to qualified foreign workers looking for these kinds of jobs in Canada as transportation companies are in need of truckers to replenish and grow their aging workforce. After including the job in its Ontario Immigrant Nominee Programme (OINP) Employer Job Offer In-Demand Skills Stream four years ago, Ontario has taken the lead in assisting transportation companies in hiring internationally trained truckers.   What are the requirements for a trucking job work permit in Canada?
