Yukon Immigration Strategy 2020–30

The Government of Yukon is modernizing its Economic Immigration Strategy to guide policy and program development over the next decade, and to ensure immigration programming continues to be responsive to the needs of Yukon’s economy. The strategy will replace the existing document that expired in 2019.

In drafting the next strategy, Yukon has an opportunity to position itself as a desirable destination for settlement for newcomers, and to strategically target newcomers most likely to enhance the territory’s economy, diversity and social fabric. The strategy will cover existing programs like the popular Yukon Nominee Program and Business Nominee Program, along with potential new programs to assist Yukon employers and continue to grow the economy with the help of immigration. The strategy applies only to economic immigration, and does not address non-economic immigration programming.
