Canada is the second-largest country in the world, with a total area of 9,984,670 km2. Ranked 5th in the 2020 Democracy Index, Canada is considered to have full democracy. Its superb living environment, extensive social welfare and education system, social and economic stability, and welcoming business and investment environment make Canada a popular immigration destination for many in Hong Kong.
Considering the job market, affordability, income equality, public healthcare system, education system, economic stability and family-friendliness, Canada has been consistently ranked as the top country for quality of life. Home to stunning landscapes, a vast land of wilderness and beautiful national parks and nature reserves, Canada offers a more relaxed lifestyle with proximity to nature. Combined with its low crime rate and cultural diversity, Canada is an ideal immigration destination for those looking to escape Hong Kong’s hustle and bustle, raise a family or in search of a place to retire.
In Canada, provincial and territorial governments set up and run their own school systems, but they are much the same across the country. By law, children must receive elementary, middle and secondary education, but, depending on the province or territory, children may start at the age of 5 or 6 and continue until they are between 16 and 18. Parents can send their children to free public schools, paid private schools or choose to homeschool. Post-secondary education is delivered through universities, colleges and recognized institutes. Canada is home to some of the top universities in the world, such as the University of Toronto and McGill University.
Canadian residents and citizens enjoy comprehensive social services and benefits that cover different life stages and needs. These include child benefits, caregiving benefits, public pensions, student aid, housing benefits, disability benefits and employment insurance.
With 14 trade agreements, such as the Canada-United-States-Mexico Agreement (CUSMA), Canada-European Union Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA) and Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP), businesses and investors have advantageous access to global markets. Its world-class transport infrastructure, including 24 international airports, 17 seaports, and 117 border-crossings to the neighbouring USA, also facilitates international supply chains and business operations.
