On July 17, 2025, the Prince Edward Island Provincial Nominee Program (PEI PNP) held its latest immigration draw, issuing 39 Invitations to Apply (ITAs) to foreign nationals with job offers in in-demand occupations. This draw clearly reflects PEI's shift towards a more selective immigration strategy amidst tightening federal immigration quotas, with a strong focus on attracting specific professionals who can quickly fill gaps in the local labour market.

In its June 24 draw, Newfoundland and Labrador issued 320 invitations and successfully negotiated a 1,000-spot increase to its 2025 PNP allocation, signaling a strong commitment to attracting new immigrants. British Columbia’s July 8 draw once again targeted entrepreneurs, issuing no more than 17 invitations and underscoring its high priority for business and investment-class immigrants. Meanwhile, Manitoba extended 67 invitations on July 10, prioritizing international students who graduated from its institutions and skilled workers identified through "Strategic Recruitment Initiatives." These moves clearly reflect the unique immigration strategies each province is deploying based on its economic and labor market needs.
