Entrepreneurs

The Entrepreneur Program supports the economic objective of Canada, which aims to contribute to a strong and prosperous Canadian economy across all regions of Canada. The intent of the Entrepreneur Program is to encourage and facilitate the immigration of qualified business persons from abroad who will make a positive contribution to the country’s economic development. Entrepreneurs are expected to apply their capital and know-how to Canadian businesses which create jobs for Canadians and permanent residents of Canada. Entrepreneurs and their family members are granted permanent residence under specific conditions that are monitored by Immigration Refugee and Citizenship Canada and by different provinces.
