The Global Talent Stream (GTS) is an initiative under Canada's Temporary Foreign Worker Program that aims to help Canadian employers attract highly skilled global talent to fill specialized positions quickly. The GTS provides employers with streamlined processes for hiring foreign workers in certain skilled occupations. It is designed to respond to the unique talent needs of Canadian businesses, particularly in the technology sector, by providing faster and more predictable processing of work permit applications for foreign workers with specialized skills. The GTS is part of Canada's broader strategy to position itself as a global destination for top talent and innovation.
