CELEBRATING 2025 ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT WEEK

THEME #4 – IMMIGRATION

Immigration is crucial for Ontario’s economic and social well-being, contributing to a skilled workforce, fostering innovation and enriching the province’s multicultural fabric. It helps address labor shortages, supports business growth, and strengthens communities by welcoming newcomers who contribute to the economy, society and culture. In Wawa, we rely on immigrants to fill gaps in our service industry, healthcare industry, forestry and mining sectors, and more!

Today, we want to extend our most sincere and heartfelt gratitude to our immigrants for their hard work and dedication.  We see you and we appreciate you. Thank you for choosing Wawa. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Economic Development Week is an international campaign created by the International Economic Development Council (IEDC) to increase awareness of local programs that create jobs, advance career development opportunities, and increase quality of life. In celebration of Economic Development Week, the Municipality of Wawa celebrates all things economic development by celebrating an economic development “theme of the day” all week.
