This regional report synthesizes common themes emerged across the four provinces. Additionally, this report suggests a strategic direction for the actions needed in order to address the gaps identified and improve the delivery of settlement and integration services in rural areas across western Canada. The key findings of this report are summarized under three themes of Settlement and Employment, Services and Gaps and Partnerships. The findings related to settlement and employment identified issues regarding community based concerns, while the findings related to settlement services and gaps and SPO partnerships discuss issues that are within CIC’s purview. Based on these key findings, three strategic directions are suggested for Citizenship and Immigration Canada aimed at supporting the settlement and integration of newcomers into rural areas and smaller centers in western Canada
