Resources for New Canadian Immigrants

by Sheila Atienza

Have you recently moved to Canada?

Did you know that there are many resources available in your local community to help you get started successfully in your settlement?  By checking out various resources available, you would be able to adjust better in your new life in Canada.

If you are a new immigrant, you would find that going into your local library would be a wise time investment.

Not only that you would be able to read free newspaper, access to computers, look into several job resources, browse the list of new books, but you would have an access as well to other media resources, such as dvds and e-books. It would be a smart alternative to expensive forms of entertainment.

Getting started in your new life in Canada need not be expensive. You just have to find access to available options.

Canada Caregiver Program, Is it Worth the Risk?

Canada Caregiver Program, Is it Worth the Risk?

by Sheila Atienza

With an aging population in Canada, it would seem that Canadians, who are needing care and support, find the live-in caregiver program the most viable avenue to respond to this so-called need.

This program under the category of temporary worker program of the Citizenship and Immigration Canada, therefore continues to attract more applicants and workers from many parts of the world. And why not, this would seem practical to many people wishing to enter Canada. And if those applicants become successful they could eventually earn the status of permanent resident.

With the growing demand for caregivers, one of the significant aspects we need to look at within this program is the protection of caregivers. Some improvements on this program came into effect recently, and therefore, caregivers could be more confident when they get to Canada.

However, there are stories we hear that some of the caregivers, while still under an agreement would opt into leaving their job, changing employers; And of course, for a variety of reasons. Now, what would happen to the employer who has sponsored an applicant? Well as they say, you would always find risks in anything that you get into.

Therefore, before getting into any agreement or sponsorship, we have to look at all sides of the equation and see if the decision is all worth the risk.
