How to get into Canada
Are you looking for the land of milk and honey, where you can have a
much better life without even working? Then you are looking for
CANADA.
Even if you are just looking for a "Western" country, or want to get
into the United States of America, Canada is a very easy stepping
stone to these other countries.
Why Canada?
Canada has the most generous of all government benefit programs as
well as being the easiest country to get into in the whole world.
BENEFITS
********
As a refugee or "landed immigrant" in Canada you can not run for
political office or vote in provincial election, but other than that
you are legally entitled to more government benefits than do their own
citizens. (It is a pretty good idea when you do get to the country to
join one of the mainstream political parties, as it will help you in
the future to get high paying political appointments to various
government departments and committees.) You can get free housing,
free health care, free day-care (for your children,) free education,
free money, free food, and all levels of government: federal,
provincial and municipal, will fight each other to see who will give
you the most. In addition there are religious organization who will
give you free help, plus many government funded multicultural (ethnic)
groups who will do everything possible to make your life there as easy
and prosperous as possible. Ever if you are not a citizen, the
government will give you money to start your own multicultural
organization to help other people going to Canada. If you do get
government funding to set up such a group, you decide what salary to
pay yourself, limited only by the size of the government grant.
If you want a job, any job, you have advantages over many Canadian
citizens, and more rights than white Canadian males. The federal
(Canadian) government and many provinces have Employment Equity Laws
that set minimum quotas for (ethnic) minorities and women, based upon
local statistics. This gives you an advantage in jobs, especially
management positions, even if you don't have any experience in that
occupation. If you are obviously non-white, you are almost guaranteed
a government job, if you want one. Should you not get a job you want,
not only can you make a complaint with an Employment Equity Commission
you can also go to the provincial and federal Human Rights Commission.
There are also many training programs available free of charge to
assist you, that are not available to citizens. The government will
even give you money to start your own business.
Should you decide you don't want to work, but instead receive Welfare
or Family Benefits, there is no difficulty in doing so. The more
children you have (or claim are yours though they might not be) the
more money you will get. They are so liberal in their social services
policies, so eager to please, that the administration of these
programs is set up so that you can easily falsely register as five or
ten or more people and therefore receive five or ten or more times the
benefits and never get caught. Many people do this and use the money
to purchase their own home, or a multiple unit dwelling they can then
rent out to other newcomers.
The government benefits you receive are highest in the major urban
areas (and their surrounding areas) such as Vancouver (and Richmond,)
British Columbia, Toronto (North York, Scarborough, Etobicoke,
Mississauga and Bramalea,) Ontario, and in Montreal, Province of
Quebec. The government encourages newcomers to settle in these areas,
and with the assistance of multicultural (ethnic) organizations, will
assist you in doing so.
Education is free for your children. If you get enough people from
your home country to petition a school to have a "Heritage Language
Program" the school will be obliged to teach your children your home
language. If the school doesn't already have a teacher who knows that
language, they will be obliged to hire one of the parents (or another
person) who knows that language and can teach it to the children (and
the language teachers does not need to have any teaching or other
credentials to do so).
EASE OF ENTRY
*************
Of all the countries in the World, Canada is the easiest in which to
become an immigrant. Should you wish to get into the U.S.A., get into
Canada first, and then entry into the U.S.A. is easy. With all the
benefits due to you upon getting to Canada, the only reason why you
might not want to live there is their cold winters. Canada is
democratic, peaceful, has a very low crime rate, and a relatively
small police force. Should you ever get caught for any criminal
offence, Canada has the most lenient sentences, often just giving you
a waring, though for serious violent crimes you will likely be sent
home (at the government's expense).
There are four main methods of entering Canada: illegally, as a
refugee, as a landed immigrant (permanent resident status), or as a
citizen.
Illegally:
Entering Canada illegally shouldn't be necessary, as they have by far
the most liberal immigration and refugee entry laws in the whole
world. If you do plan to enter illegally because you have not or will
not be accepted any other way, you can visit Canada using a Visitor's
or Student visa, and then once it is about to run out, you can easily
disappear in Canada. Under a student visa you are eligible for free
health care in most provinces.
Additionally, Canadian documents such as: entry permits, returning
resident permits, renewal of Minister's permits, immigration visa,
visitor visas and employment authorizations can easily be purchased.
There is no need to buy poor quality fake documents, as real
Government of Canada documents are in wide distribution, worldwide; as
many government workers appear to supplement their salaries by selling
these forms.
At the present time, it is estimated that out of a population of 27.5
million peole, 500,000 are in that country illegally. For political
reasons, every few years, the Canadian government solves the problem
of illegal immigrants by granting them all an amnesty; that is during
these amnesties anybody who is in that country illegally who comes
forward and admits it automatically gets "landed immigrant" status
unless they have been caught committing a serious violent criminal
act.
Refugees:
Every year about 20,000 go to Canada as political refugees. The
Canadian Minister of Immigration has announced that figure may rise to
as high as 60,000 a year.
Half of these peole go to Canada sponsored and paid for by the
Government of Canada. Most of the rest are sponsored and their
transporation paid for by refugee organizations; many are church and
other religious groups, and the others are ethnic organizations.
The United Nations Convention on Refugees defines a refugee as
somebody who has reason to fear persecution in their home country
because of their race, religion, gender, nationality, political
viewpoint, or membership in a particular social group. Canada has
expanded this definition; for instance their Supreme Court has
included "reproductive freedom" so that a Chinese woman who is
pregnant with her second child (which is against the law of the
Peoples' Republic of China, and will result in her being sterilized
against her will after the birth of that child,) can claim refugee
status, and Canada's Immigration and Refugee Board (IRB) permits
political refugee status on the basis of homosexuality.
Should you be refused entry for reasons such as not meeting the
medical criterion, you can use these same medical grounds (such as
having TB or AID's) to claim entry for compassionate and humanitarian
reasons.
You should contact a church or other religious organization, or the
Canadian Embassy or Consulate in your country. Remember the U.N.
definition of a Convention Refugee before you give the reason(s) why
yo may fear for you and your family's lives, and keep your story
simple so you don't get caught lying.
Once you get to Canada, stay in touch with the organization who
arranged your entry as they can make sure you get the maximum benefits
your are entitled to in Canada.
Immigration:
Canada grants over 250,000 people a year "landed immigrant"
(permanent resident) status. With only 27.5 million people in their
country, this is by far, the highest per capita figure in the World.
You can emmigrate to Canada on several grounds:
- Family Class Sponsorship
- Entrepreneurs,
- Investors,
- the self-employed, or as an
- Independent Applicant.
To enter under the Family Class Sponsorship, your relative who must be
a "landed immigrant" or citizen in Canada, requests of the Canadian
government, that you join them. This can easily be taken advantage of
as in many countries there is little provable documentation as to whom
is related to who. This is the easiest way to emmigrate to Canada.
Investors and Entrepreneurs typically need to bring a minimum of
$250,000 with them to Canada. This money is meant to be invested in
Canada or to start a business there. It is common for several people
to put their money together so as to have over the $250,000 and this
money is used to get the first person into Canada as an Entrepreneur
or Investor. After a year, that money is sent out of Canada, and then
re-enters the country with another "entrepreneur". Using this method,
the very same money can be used to get several people into Canada over
several years.
The "self-employed" must prove that they can make a significant
artistic, cultural or economic contribution to Canada to gain entry.
To be able to use this criterion, your best bet is to be an "artist"
or a "writer" and contact an artistic or cultural groups to provide
you wil a letter to back up your story even if you never really made
your living this way.
The second easiest way to get "landed immigrant" status in Canada is
under the heading of an "Independent Applicant".
Canada has a point system to decide your eligibility. There are
three methods get into Canada using that system:
1 - They give points depending upon your education. The more
education; the more points. You just have to provide the
documents or certificates. Due to the number of applicants, they
almost never verify if your documents are real or forgeries.
2 - Points are assigned based upon your claimed occupation. The
maximum number of points (almost enough to guarantee your entry,)
are awarded if you claim to be a: scientist, computer programmer,
engineer or electronic technician. You should have documents to
support your claims. They do not test you to see if you actually
have any knowledge of your claimed specialty, and rarely verify
your documents. Fake engineering degrees and computer programming
certificates that will almost guarantee your entry are widely
available in Asia and most of Eastern Europe.
3 - If you have a job guarantee in Canada, your chances of getting
into Canada are extremely good.
There are many employment agencies throughout the World and
Canada that will arrange jobs in any occupation in Canada. If you
are female there is a very high demand for "domestic helpers"
(housekeepers and nannies). Check for ads in your country's
newpaper's or ethnic newspapers from Canada.
Even if there isn't a job waiting for you in Canada, for a price,
most of these companies will provide you with fake documentation
saying there is a guaranteed job waiting for you in Canada, and
you can use this documentation to get into the country.
Warning: It is best to get a personal recommendation from somebody
who has successfully gotten to Canada, as to the reputation of the
employment agency. A few agencies have been known to abuse their
applicants and send them to Canada to be prostitutes.
Citizenship:
Normally it takes at least three years of living in Canada to become a
citizen of that country. There are two ways to instantly become a
citizen: marry a Canadian citizen, or be born in Canada.
Many countries have marriage bureaus. Usually they bring together
women from their home country with Canadian men. (A few will also
introduce men to Canadian women.) It is your right to find the
richest man you can, to marry. If you marry him and stay married for
at least 6 months, even if you then get divorced, you get to keep your
Canadian citizenship. Additionally, if you actually marry the
Canadian man and then divorce him for a good reason, you will likely
get one-half of all his assets (businesses, family home, other
property, cars, etc.). If you want half of his assets, it is best to
create a record of repeated physical abuse, whether or not any has
occured. To do this contact any women's groups after 4 or 5 months of
marriage, to complain of physical abuse, to establish a record of
your first complaints. In the sixth month or later, hit or otherwise
injure yourself so that you will have at least bruising and call
the Police and say your husband has beaten you. You will then do
the same a second time, but first call the women's shelter and then
the Police. This second time, ask the Police to drive you to the
women's shelter on the grounds that you fear for your life. The
shelter will get you a place to live and get you a free lawyer to help
you divorce your Canadian husband and claim half of all his assets.
Feminist groups will also greatly assist you. You will now not only
be a Canadian citizen, but also be rich!
Another way to get into Canada is to be a parent of a Canadian. It is
common for a pregnant woman to get a visitor's visa to visit Canada,
but to time the visit to be around the date of the birth. If the
child is born in Canada, it is automatically a Canadian citizen.
Having a child who is a Canadian citizen greatly increases the chance
for the woman to be given "landed immigrant" status. Once the woman
is a landed immigrant, she can now sponsor her husband and other
members of her family to come to Canada.
With all its benefits, Canada is the greatest place to emmigrate to!
