- Evolving free trade agreement options – GATS, CUSMA, CETA, CPTPP, etc;
- Essential workers during the pandemic;
- Business visitor viability with pandemic border restrictions;
- Youth mobility under the IEC;
- Eligibility under the Global Skills Stream;
- Navigating port of entry issues and inland applications; and,
- Essential workers - quarantine realities and exemptions.
