In a recent meeting between Caretaker Chief Minister Punjab Mohsin Naqvi and Canadian High Commissioner Leslie Scanlon, Canada informally agreed to welcome additional workers from Punjab.

Naqvi expressed optimism about the agreement, foreseeing increased employment opportunities for Pakistani youth in Canada.

The discussions also extended to collaboration in various areas, notably environmental protection.

This emphasis is crucial, given Lahore’s status as one of the most polluted cities globally.

The commitment to environmental collaboration reflects a shared concern about addressing pressing issues.

A delegation from the Punjab government is scheduled to visit Canada in the coming weeks for the formal signing of the agreement, marking a positive step towards strengthening ties between the two regions.
