This is a primer on Canadian immigration, which sorts out and converts a sea of Canadian immigration information from various sources into a single book. The book may serve as a reference to immigration practitioner program students for their Entryto-Practice Exam preparation. It also aims to provide new immigration practitioners with a search tool when they need to locate a particular piece of immigration information. In addition, it functions as a road-map to help immigration prospects navigate their way through the Canadian immigration labyrinth. Immigration, all in all, is about legal status, namely, who can come and remain in Canada. The status of individuals in immigration context decides whether Canada is open to them and through which channel they may seek entry to and remain in Canada. While Canadian citizens and registered Indians under the Indian Act have absolute access to Canada, the access to other individuals is subject to the assessment of two factors: eligibility and admissibility.
