Manitoba

Newcomers choose Manitoba for many reasons. Some choose Manitoba to be closer to family, some for-employment opportunities, and for others it is an attraction to a part of Canada that is not too big and not too small.

Manitoba immigrants are succeeding! According to a recent survey, 85 per cent of Manitoba provincial nominees were working three months after arrival, 76 per cent were homeowners within five years and 95 per cent of families settle permanently in the community, making Manitoba their new home.

The Manitoba Provincial Nominee Program (MPNP) is the welcoming doorway to Canadian permanent residence in the following immigration categories:
