Welcome to My World Canada is a nation of immigrants and as a growing country Canada actively welcomes permanent residents from around the world. As a Canadian immigration lawyer I have been working for over 15 years in assisting people in coming to Canada. Immigration Law is my world and I love the satisfaction of helping people relocate here whether permanently or temporarily. I am proud that many of those I have helped to become citizens have also become my friends. But immigration isn't always a smooth process. The process can be lengthy. Policies and laws are constantly changing. Sometimes for the better, Sometimes not. Interpretation and application of our laws and policies can be inconsistent and unfair. In this forum I plan to address topics of interest or concern about Canada's immigration process. I'll share my views on how to navigate the immigration journey. What to look out for and how to make it a better ride. I'll let you know of new processes whether good or bad. My job is to help people build new lives for themselves and their families in this wonderful, tolerant and accepting country. Welcome to my world.
