Meta is expanding its Canadian presence with the creation of a new engineering hub based in Toronto. Most of the Canadian job opportunities will be engineering-focused as it plans to hire up to 2,500 employees for remote and in-office positions across Canada over the next five years to help build the metaverse. This expansion will also focus on establishing the first Canadian WhatsApp, Messenger, and Remote Presence engineering teams. Meta also announced an additional C$510,000 in unrestricted grants to 17 research labs in Canada.
