Canadian Immigration

Canadian Immigration Every year, over 200,000 people are allowed to enter Canada as permanent residents. They complete an application process that provides them with an opportunity for a new life in Canada. Once approved, an individual is able to enjoy almost all the same rights as citizens of Canada (with the exception of voting privileges and unlimited stays when traveling outside of Canada). The process of obtaining permanent residency in Canada is complex and time consuming.
