These draws took place through the Alberta Express Entry Stream, the Alberta Opportunity Stream, and the Dedicated Health Care Pathway, as well as for through the pathway for law enforcement.
Note: The AAIP’s Dedicated Health Care Pathway offers two intake options: one aligned with Express Entry (enhanced) and another that is non-Express Entry.
