You either need to apply to immigrate to Canada. Once you are a PR, you won't need a work permit to work here. Note that you need at least one year of full time paid work experience to qualify.
Otherwise if you want to come to Canada on a work permit, you need to secure a full time job offer with an employer here and that employer needs to obtain an approved LMIA before you can apply for a work permit.
There are no separate or special pathways for Sri Lankans. You would follow the same process as anyone else.
Thank you. I am currently living in Sri Lanka. Can I just send my application for immigration, without a job offer, just as a federal skilled worker category. I contacted the embassy but they said they can't help me regarding my application. I just have to apply and see, but I am afraid to apply that my application might be refused from the embassy
