Canada and Slovenia signed a Youth Mobility Agreement today that will make it easier for Canadians and Slovenians aged 18-35 to spend up to a year in each other's countries for travel or work.
"This agreement will facilitate cultural exchanges involving young Canadians and Slovenians. Such exchanges benefit not only the personal and professional development of these youths but also the long-term international interests of both countries," said Canada's Minister of Foreign Affairs Lawrence Cannon.
The agreement is expected to be implemented early next year.
Canada currently has similar agreements with more than 20 countries. In addition, Canada is expected to sign agreements with four other European countries in the coming months.
It is important to note that Citizenship and Immigration Canada is responsible for issuing the correct documentation to foreign participants of the program.
