In 2026, the business-immigration map has changed. Provinces have paused, narrowed, or closed entrepreneur streams, and requirements now vary widely — investment minimums from $100K to $600K and net-worth thresholds from $300K to $600K, plus different ownership, language, and job-creation rules. Placing a client in the wrong stream can cost them the file.

This data-driven session puts Canada's active business immigration pathways side by side — the open provincial nominee streams, the work-permit-first model, and the federal C11 and Intra-Company Transfer routes owners use to establish in Canada and bridge to PR. You'll leave able to match a client's capital, sector, and region to the right pathway, with a realistic read on approval odds, allocations, and processing times. What we'll cover:

1. Investment and net-worth thresholds, stream by stream

2. Which streams are open, paused, or closed in 2026

3. Ownership, language, and job-creation rules that decide eligibility

4. C11 and ICT as work-permit bridges to PR

5. Matching the client to the right stream — and reading the real approval landscape
