Like British Columbia, there are several provinces of Canada conducting the draws of their Provincial Nominee Programs (PNPs) to invite candidates to apply for provincial nomination for Canadian PR visa. Some of the PNPs even do not ask for the job offer, such as, OINP, SINP, AAIP, etc.

Hence, PNPs are best alternate pathway to apply for PR visa in Canada in case you do not have high enough points in the federal Express Entry System.
