Canadian employers who want to hire a foreign worker must typically obtain a Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) from Employment and Social Development Canada (ESDC). This document confirms that no Canadian citizen or permanent resident is available for the job. The LMIA process is detailed, documentation-heavy, and subject to strict requirements.
