Even if you get a CSQ from Québec, the Québec govt has made it such that you have to wait 2 years at Federal stage. While rest of Canada will get your permanent residency within 4-6 months with skills more in demand other than speaking Fren

Unfortunately Québec do not have a working skilled immigration system yet. Québec do not follow rest of Canada's immigration system. The CAQ govt. of Québec has completely messed up the immigration system of Québec. Québec focuses on k

That's what's called chain migration. Just because your "uncle got a greencard" doesn't mean skilled immigrants get a greencard unlike your unskilled uncle. This is the kind of immigration that Trump wants to stop.

It stands to be seen how many of them will go back to US when the immigration policy becomes favorable. Canada is still plan B for high skilled immigrants. If H4 work authorization is removed, there will be a surge to Canada. Many US skille

Going by the general tone of comments here. How about making something like the old Chineese head tax in Canada. Let's restrict Indians & Chineese and allow only whites to immigrate. Then I think it would be OK for everyone white.

If Indians and Chineese can live there with the salary they get. Why can't you ? What makes you different ? Indians & Chineese are buying foreign products in their countries. Why can't other countries accept goods(human resour

Good riddance. They had very bad customer service at least in Montreal. It was worse than Communauto. I was also skeptic about the safety of their soapbox shaped small cars & their safety during winter riding conditions.

That's good news for Québec where they have made laws to treat English speakers as second class citizens. Businesses in Québec are advised not to greet customers with "Bonjour-Hi" but just "Bonjour" to preserve the

I am more curious about the technology that Québec will use to identify groups of people online & offline to determine whether they are historic Anglophones in Québec or other anglophones from rest of Canada. Something like smart card ?
