"It's more successful than we predicted," Canada's Immigration Minister Ahmed Hussen said in a phone interview. "This program came from the business community. They identified a challenge and said you need to fix it."

Those who are fast-tracked can apply to stay as long as three years and also for permanent residency. Computer programmers, systems analysts, and software engineers, are the top three categories of workers to benefit so far. The bulk come from India -- the same country that makes up the majority of U.S. H-1B visas issued -- followed by China and France.

Word is spreading throughout Canada's tech community.

I guess, just a number......

Canada's fast-track visa program is just one part of Trudeau's drive to boost innovation. The government is also pouring hundreds of millions of dollars into venture capital and support for artificial intelligence, joining private money investing in the country's tech hubs in Waterloo and Toronto, Ontario, Vancouver and Montreal.

Two thousand people may be a small sliver when compared with the 320,000 newcomers Canada welcomed last year.
