Canadian Immigration
For people who may not know, Canada has a comparatively
liberal and easier (in my opinion) immigration procedure
for qualified professionals.
A prospective immigrant applies with his/her qualifications
and a substantial fees (around 1 K) and they evaluate
the application on a point system based on criteria
such as education level, job experience, demand of that
profession in Canada, ties with Canada etc.
If selected the Canadain govt helps in the job search.
This is a very crude summary of the process.
The following post from the newsgroup misc.immigration.canada
points to more detailed info.
I hope this helps for people and/or their relatives intending
to immigrate to North America, especially people fed-up
with the visa rejections from the US consulates.
