Depending on the exact job, you might be able to go for CEC or PNP. However, you will have to check what is available on the CIC web site.

There have been some "scam" farm jobs from Quebec, so I was just asking in case it was one we have seen before..

If you know French, and have enough points - go through Quebec immigration: http://www.immigration-quebec.gouv.qc.ca/fr/immigrer-installer/travailleurs-permanents/index.html.

P.s. Your job needs to be legit, as mentioned before.

@Zardoz, did you miss something? CEC can accept quebec's experience but only if 'you show intent to live outside of quebec' which is not trivial at least. Because once you have a PR, CIC cannot enforce any thing on you. So they try hard to confirm that. I myself am in this situation and hoping to move to Ottawa if needed because my employer has a head office in Gatineau.

The quebec's provincial program is called QSW which normally requires advanced intermediate proficiency in french.

Quite possible...
I'm more concerned that the OP is not being scammed by one of the poultry or fruit farm scammers.

Sure i understand that. What i was wondering is that are you implying that even if the farm job is legitimate and inside quebec, there is some discretion for getting CEC while still being in Quebec?

I see what you mean. I wasn't assuming that the OP was committed to staying in Quebec. I got the impression that the OP was just looking for an "in".

Right - thank you. That clarifies.
