Hi,

There is this program which makes it much easier for Canadian employers to hire foreign francophone workers:

https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/corporate/publications-manuals/operational-bulletins-manuals/temporary-residents/foreign-workers/exemption-codes/canadian-interests-significant-benefit-mobilite-francophone-r205-exemption-code-c16.html

I was wondering what a foreign worker could do proactively to participate in this program. Can I submit an application? Or perhaps, I should point to this program while sending a cover letter to perspective employers in Canada? Or should I just look for a job and hope that an employer participates in this program?

I speak French quite fluently (CLB8-9 at TCF Canada). I’ll be grateful for any feedback, thank you!
