Canada’s new immigration policy continues to attract skilled professionals, including massage therapists, under Provincial Nominee Programs (PNPs) and Express Entry. With Metro Vancouver’s growing multicultural population and the U.S.-Canada trade tensions reshaping supply chains, local businesses are being encouraged to source locally and focus on service-based industries.
This makes it a strategic time to start a service-focused wellness business.
