Chronicle Herald – Halifax Immigration Lawyer Suggests ‘Easy Fix’ to Attract Newcomers and Boost Economy
Out of the 794 invitations sent out by the province to immigrant entrepreneurs all over the world, only 14 of them ended up obtaining their permanent residency in Nova Scotia, projecting a lower than two per cent turnout rate.

However, the rigid requirement has stopped many from coming through the door.

Bénédict Nguiagain, elle-même d’origine camerounaise, a parlé à 21 Québécois de 18 à 33 ans issus de l’immigration africaine de deuxième génération. Ces jeunes sont nés et ont grandi au Québec et pourtant, tous les jours, ils disent vivre des situations qui ne les font pas sentir comme s’ils étaient chez eux.
Financial Post – Posthaste: Move Over America, Canada Is Now the Most Desirable Destination for International Workers
A global survey of 208,807 workforce respondents in 190 countries shows Canada is now the most desirable destination for international workers, surpassing the United States.
