On behalf of the Premier and the Yukon government, I thank the members of the Immigration Strategy Working Group for their passion and dedication throughout the development of this important document and the supporting action plan. [...] In order to orient the reader to the Immigration Strategy, an overview is provided of the document, followed by a discussion of the importance of immigration, a brief explanation of immigrant numbers and source countries, and a discussion of one of Yukon’s most significant immigration initiatives, the Yukon Nominee Program. [...] A central component to the development of the Immigration Strategy was the involvement of working groups in the development of the strategy. [...] This interest-based approach is outlined in the section discussing the development of the Immigration Strategy and the work of the Immigration Strategy Working Group. [...] The way forward is through the development of immigration programs and services that allow Yukon to ensure a sustainable and responsive approach to immigration, thereby supporting the vision of the Labour Market Framework.
