Y International

Y International is a recruitment and immigration firm based in Sudbury, Ontario, founded in 2006. It recruits skilled tradespeople abroad and places them with Canadian employers, including shops, dealerships and plants.

Immigration work is part of the service. Work permit, LMIA and visa applications are prepared and filed in-house under the supervision of Robert Brouillette, the firm's owner, who is a lawyer licensed with the Law Society of Ontario.

Beyond recruiting, the company says it offers integration support for new hires through relocation and their first months on the job, retention strategy, planning of international hiring pipelines against growth targets, and guidance for tradespeople seeking Red Seal certification. It serves both employers hiring skilled trades and candidates who want to work in Canada.
