More Details on Business Immigration


Canada has unique business immigration programs through which foreign entrepreneurs can secure permanent residency. These investor immigration programs are similar to golden visas and citizenship by investment programs; however, Canadian business immigration programs require active investment, eventually allowing you to get citizenship in exchange for investment. Through business immigration, business owners, entrepreneurs, and investors can become Canadian citizens by investing in Canadian businesses.
