The Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) has announced that permanent residents, which include a large chunk of Pakistanis and Indians, are now eligible to join the military. The announcement came close to Remembrance Day of Canada. Permanent residents were previously only eligible under the Skilled Military Foreign Applicant (SMFA) entry programme, which was “open for individual, that would reduce training costs or fill a special need, such as a trained pilot or a doctor,” according to the Royal United Services Institute of Nova Scotia.
