Canadian Visa Professionals - Website Team — Sun, 18 Feb 2024 10:45:32 +0000

Canadian Visa Professionals could confirm that Regina, Saskatchewan, has the lowest cost of living with the most affordable housing cost of all the Canadian cities.

According to a new study, residents can live comfortably with less than $2,000 a month in the city while they continue to enjoy all the available social amenities.

Regina is a city in south Saskatchewan with a little over 226,000 residents and is about a two-hour drive from Montana’s border.

Canadian Visa Professionals describes Regina as a city rooted in indigenous history, housing indigenous tribes for thousands of years. The city is about 120 years old and was named Regina by the European settlers in the 19^th century, a Latin word for the queen in honour of Queen Victoria.

Regina, as a city in Canada, is known for its universal healthcare, thriving economy, stunning natural landscapes and diverse society. The city is one of the best options for retirees seeking a lower cost of living in Canada and affordable housing away from the financial pressure, hustle and bustle of other cities.

Why is Regina a good place to retire?

The city is a highly sought-after place to retire, because it offers many urban amenities without the usual hectic pace akin to other metropolitan areas. The city has an average resident age of 39 years.

Canadian Visa Professionals could confirm that 18 per cent of Regina’s population is 65 and above, making it one of the cities with the largest retirement community, encouraging networking and social events.

More so, Regina is the sunniest city in Canada, with about 322 days of sunshine per year.

Canadian Job Creation Beats Expectations

Canadian Visa Professionals - Website Team — Wed, 27 Dec 2023 10:31:32 +0000

Job creation recently exceeded Canadians’ expectations. Canadian Visa Professionals could establish that Canada’s economy added 39,000 jobs in July 2023. The job additions impacted sectors such as the professional, scientific and technical services alongside the construction industry.

For example, professional, scientific and technical services added about 52,000 positions. Additionally, the construction industry added about 34,000 jobs in Canada.

Canadian Visa Professionals says Canada’s job market added about 174,000 new positions in the first eight months of the year, with an average of 25,000 new jobs per month.

Canadian Visa Professionals highlights some economic experts’ opinions on job creation in Canada.

Doug Porter, an economist with the Bank of Montreal, says:

“Canada now needs a steady flow of jobs just to match raging population growth. It is inconsistent to see a sturdy monthly gain of 40,000 jobs and still conclude that the market is slightly easing.”

Doug Porter

According to Tiff Macklem, Bank of Canada governor, when speaking to a business audience in Calgary on Thursday:

“Population growth suggests that the supply of workers is growing more than the demand for workers. So supply is catching up with demand, and the pressures are easing.”

Tiff Macklem

Canadian Visa Professionals concludes that though new jobs are being added, they won’t be at a faster pace than the population growth.

Brendon Bernard, a senior economist at Indeed.com, says Canada’s surging population is having an impact on both sides of the inflationary ledger.

"There are some key areas where population growth is relatively inflationary, especially in the housing market – it pushes up demand for housing and rent."

The political unrest in Hong Kong is playing a part in the surge of interest from potential immigrants to Canada.

The number of study permit applications and skilled worker applications has been on the rise. Many of the youth in Hong Kong are in disagreement with the government over the loss of freedoms that were set in place after the region returned to Chinese rule. Two natives of Hong Kong studied and lived in British Columbia, but planned to return to their homeland after graduation.

Canadian Immigration Boosts Economy in So Many Ways

Canadian Visa Professionals - Website Team — Thu, 17 Sep 2020 06:50:55 +0000

The Canadian government is proactive in combating the potential labor shortage due to more than nine million baby boomers retiring over the next ten years. Marco Mendicino, the federal minister of Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship, has proposed increasing new permanent residents to Canada by one million over the next three years.

Mendicino said immigration is necessary to drive economic growth, assist companies in accessing the talent needed to thrive, and it spurs innovation. Canada is a desirable location for immigration and now is a great time to consider relocating. Contact CanadianVP for help applying for the visa required to live and work in Canada.

Economic Engine

A senior economist at RBC Capital Markets, Andrew Agopsowicz, said immigration has fueled Canada’s economic engine, helping the gross domestic product (GDP) grow at a faster rate than the national average in the larger cities. Toronto, Vancouver, and Montreal’s populations would have declined dramatically in 2019 without Canadian immigration. The country grew by almost 580,000 people, and 80 percent of the growth happened by immigration, which helped offset Canada’s naturally aging demographic.

Healthy Inspiration

Former Bank of Canada governor Stephen Poloz noted there is no reason Canada should not be a desirable migration destination as long as the right protocols are set in place. He said there is a healthy inspiration for the government to figure out how to keep immigration an engine of economic growth. The team of experts at Canadian Visa Professionals will walk you through the steps for immigration. They will answer any questions you may have about the process. Contact them today!
