The government of Canada issued 8,000+ visa's for Filipinos who would want to work in parts of the said country. Guest workers Visa were given as indicated in the labor agreement that was signed between Philippines and the 4 provinces of Canada namely Nova Scotia, Manitoba, British Colombia and Alberta. In the said agreement, Filipinos workers were not required anymore to secure recruitment fees and they will get the same benefits as with their Canadian counterparts. This does also give them the option of applying for "Immigrant" status in the future. This is great news for out new heroes, the OFW's. ^_^
