  Accelerated pathways to permanent residency FIND OUT IF YOU QUALIFY - FREE ASSESSEMENT Dear Miss Powell, This is   a really urgent question as I’m really wondering if there is finally a light at the end of the tunnel for farm workers and little people like me. I just heard from a friend who is a truck driver that there is a new programme for us to stay in Canada for good.
