More than 15k Indian tech workers came to Canada over past 12 months

Toronto: India formed the largest cohort of global tech industry workers who flocked to Canada between April 2022 and March 2023, according to a recent report from The Technology Councils of North America (TECNA) and Canada’s Tech Network (CTN).

Out of more than 32,000 tech workers, 15,097 came from India, followed by 1,808 from Nigeria, partly due to Canada’s immigration-friendly national policy and labor cost advantage, the report said.
