Hello,
Petit complément sur ce sujet qui je crois pourrais un jour servir à quelqu'un.
Moi, en l'occurrence car je me pose toujours la question 7 mois après !
J'ai maintenant mon JP, mais comme je voudrais faire du bénévolat dans un organisme sans but lucratif - qui ne travaille qu'avec des bénévoles (personne ne reçoit de salaire) en plus de mon travail...
Voici ce que raconte le site immigrationcanada.pro:
Volunteers
If a foreign individual in Canada engages in an activity and is not paid wages or commissions, he or she is not considered to be “working” in Canada and no work permit is required.
However, if an unpaid foreign individual engages in activities that are in direct competition with activities of Canadian citizens or permanent residents in the labour market, this is considered to be “work” and a work permit would be required.
For example, if a foreign individual engaged in an activity that would normally be a paid position for a Canadian citizen, then a work permit would be required. A person can’t work as a “volunteer” in a job that is normally a paid job.
The courts have held that visitors who occasionally help out relatives at their place of business over a short period of time are not usually engaging in work, whereas regular attendance at a workplace where individuals are typically paid over a longer period of time can be considered work for which a permit is required.

En gros, si je fais du bénévolat pour du travail qui ne remplacerait habituellement pas celui d'un travailleur Canadien, mon bénévolat semble réglo.
Bisous les gens
Soyez heureux, aidez votre prochain !
