Overview
Canada is one of the choice destinations for most people who wish to relocate from different countries of the world. This is because the country path to securing a permanent residence permit coupled with a good number of other benefits in Canada one gets as an immigrant. However, the problem has always been how to move to Canada—the route to follow and all. The good news is that you can relocate to Canada for free with your family using the Economic Mobility Pathways Pilot (EMP) program route which many do not know. Using this route, you do not require any job offer to be able to relocate, and the process leads to direct permanent residency within six months.
