Thank you for your interest in the Rural and Northern Immigration Pilot (RNIP) in the West Kootenay region.
The West Kootenay Region was recognized as an area of opportunity that could benefit from this pilot and has entered into a partnership with Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC). The region utilizes this pilot to continue to strengthen our local economy and support the development of our workforce. Each of the 11 communities across the country that are participating in the pilot have tailored the immigration pilot to address their needs and economic development goals. For more information on the benefits of immigration, please go to Immigration Matters.
