 Manitoba, BC, and PEI release immigration draw results  ||  Oris Visas  Here is a look at Canada's provincial immigration draws for the week of April 18.   This past week, three Canadian provinces released their  Provincial Nominee Program  (PNP) draw results. Most Canadian provinces and territories (except  Quebec  and Nunavut) operate their own PNPs. Through these programs, interested candidates may be invited to apply for a provincial nomination. Although provincial nomination is not in itself the same as a permanent residence, it can significantly increase the chances of obtaining permanent resident status. For instance, PNP candidates with  Express Entry profiles  who receive a nomination get 600 points added to their score.

In 1998, when it was launched, the PNP welcomed only 400 immigrants, but due to its success, it now welcomes more than 80,000 per year. The increase in the number of
