<HTML>You have nothing to do with security clearance. It is a sort of status. You can’t “apply” for it.
When you apply for a position at a government agent, they will conduct a security check on your background. After that, you will be awarded such a status, like “enhanced security clearance”, etc. Some contracting agents require applicants with security clearance since they do not run such background check.
Security clearance is essential if the project involves some confidential information. One of the basic requirements is the Canadian citizenship. You have to be a citizen to acquire security clearance status.
