First of, you need to go to the Citizenship and Immigration Canada website. Look for the skilled workers and professionals link. There you will find all the steps you have to take depending on what country you live in. It is different for every country, so make sure you select the right one! You must submit your application to the visa office that serves your country of nationality or the country where you have been legally admitted for at least one year. Also, be prepared as the process might take quite a long time depending on each case. But start with that website first. Each case is different! I must say the Canadian Immigration office is very helpful when you call with questions! So don't be afraid to call them up and ask! Good luck to you!!

Would it be good to get a BSc in Canada and then go to the states to do masters

Would it be good to get a BSc in Canada and then go to the states to do masters?
Hi, I'm currently doing an undergrad in chemistry but i am more interested in nursing and would like to transfer. I would love to become a nurse anesthetist; however, i live in Canada and they do not offer it here. I know MANY schools offer it in US as a masters degree. So my ques is would it be beneficial to go to the states after becoming a RN in Canada and going over there to become a nurse anesthetist? Would it be worth it? Or should i try to pursue a masters in nursing here and Canada and become a nurse practitioner instead?? Thank you for any input!!

You can go for your MSc in the USA but it will be more expensive than in Canada. However, you can still get Canadian student loans to go to school in the US.

Is it hard to immigrate to Canada, what's it like

Is it hard to immigrate to Canada, what's it like?
I grew up in the US, but I'm a citizen of a very developed European country. I speak English fluently with an American accent, so I won't be too much of an outcast. I took 3 years of French in High School (just graduated) and am planning on getting my master's degree in nursing. I'm planning on going to college all around Europe, and graduate school either in South Africa or Australia. After that, however, I'd like to immigrate permanently to an English speaking country. How hard would it be for me to immigrate to Canada? I want something that's similar to the country I grew up in (the US), but it's way too hard to immigrate there. At least I'll be close. I've known many Canadians and they're quite friendly, some of my best friends have been from Canada. However, I've also heard that they can be a bit prejudiced against foreigners. I've heard that it's incredibly hard to get a job if you've gone to school overseas and that Canadians are a bit racist. I'm white (from all around Europe), but both of my parents are European and grew up there, and I do speak a European language fluently and I'm not ashamed of my culture or anything.

Canadians are no more and no less "racist" than citizens of other countries, but there's been some quiet resentment building against massive immigration, especially by newcomers who don't want to assimilate, or who get their cheap three year Canadian citizenships and the protection of Canadian passports, then go back to their native countries. The big problem for immigrants (and native-born Canadians) is lack of job mobility. Canada's economy is just not very good at creating jobs. It's been that way since the late 1960s. This is masked by apparently low unemployment rates, but in fact if someone loses a job in Canada it can be very difficult to find a replacement. Many immigrants come to Canada, try to "break into" the job market but fail. At some times, ~40% immigrants to Canada from Europe return to Europe. (Immigrants from India and Pakistan, on the other hand, stay forever, and bring their aged parents, brothers, cousins with disabilities, รข€” in fact the whole village...)

You sound quite negative, and uninformed about Canada. Three years of high school French won't get you far. You can apply to Canada when you have a degree and work experience. I suggest you spend some time there as a tourist. I wouldn't go on and on about white race while you are there visiting.

In Western Canada you can apply directly with the heath authorities who often have labour market opinions which enable them to sponsor you for a termporary work permit. It may be difficult to find an employer who would only want to hire you for one year given the paperwork but who knows what the demand will be like in 2011. Feel free to keep in touch.
