As for overall top markets for high-tech job growth, Vancouver came in first with 44% while Toronto came in second at 37%.

Just recently, a cloud computing company Snowflake opened its first Canadian branch in Toronto, creating hundreds of tech positions for the area.

And that’s just Toronto, cities across Canada are currently looking for tech professionals and the best part about these positions is that many of them are remote.
