Moving to Canada through a business requires two viable plans: a plan for the enterprise and a plan for the family's immigration status. They must work together. Incorporating a company, buying shares, obtaining a municipal licence or receiving a community's encouragement does not, by itself, authorize work or establish eligibility for permanent residence.

Moving to Canada through business or skilled work brings several decisions together. You need a place where your skills or enterprise can earn a living, a lawful route to work and remain, and a household plan that can survive delays. This book helps experienced business owners, managers, tradespeople and their families put those decisions in a workable order.
