Compared to the past, the skills of migrants have changed: today there are many researchers, skilled workers and entrepreneurs. In 2018, more than half of the Italian citizens who moved abroad (53%) had medium-high educational qualifications: 33,000 high school graduates and 29,000 college graduates.<ref>''Italia, in 10 anni espatriati oltre 180 mila laureati'', in ''L'economia'', 16 dicembre 2019.</ref> Compared with the previous year, the number of emigrated high school graduates and college graduates increased (+1% and +6%, respectively). The increase is much larger if the time spectrum is broadened: compared to five years earlier, emigrants with medium-high educational qualifications grew by 45%.<ref>Report Istat, ''Aumentano gli italiani che si trasferiscono all'estero, diminuiscono le immigrazioni'' [https://www.istat.it/it/files/2019/12/REPORT_migrazioni_2018.pdf].</ref> Highly qualified people are in demand in Canada in areas that are lacking in the territory, particularly in information and communication technologies.<ref name="Avveduto">{{Harvtxt|Avveduto|ref=Avveduto 2004|2004|p=14}}</ref>
Today, migratory chains have lost importance, while the numerous blogs and forums reporting the testimonies of Italians living in Canada constitute a source of information and support for making the choice of a possible relocation.
