Canada: A Place Immigrants Call Home

Canada is a country with pluralism in its veins. As the most welcoming country in the world, Canada has changed the lives of millions of people. The people from around the world, who have made Canada their home, celebrate Canada Day on the 1st of July delightedly—the day commemorating confederation in 1867 when the British North America Act came into existence.

Canada opened its doors to foreign nationals in 1970 under the Prime Ministership of Pierre Trudeau. The country has been promoting multiculturalism since then. Everyone in Canada is considered equal, without any discrimination of country, caste, creed, colour and religion. Canada day is the day of jubilation and celebration for the migrants to recalling the togetherness offered by the nation.

The country surprised the world, and upheld its optimistic and philanthropic ideology, even during the COVID-19 period. As countries, including the United States, stopped accepting immigrants until further order, Canada announced lenient norms for application for immigration. A move that came as a relief to many hoping to migrate to Canada.

The leaders in the Canadian government and powerful positions have always maintained a progressive approach to various issues. It was the first country outside Europe to legalize same-sex marriage. You will find such thoughtful and advanced decisions at every juncture in the history of Canada.

Being a developed country and the 10th largest economy in the world, Canada is at the forefront of the education and health sector. The prestigious educational institutions have been the dream destination for overseas students for decades. The elaborate infrastructure facilities in the colleges/ universities are a cut above the rest.
