Canada announced today the implementation of the Start-Up Visa program in which foreign entrepreneurs can apply to starting April 1st.  Announced by Citizenship, Immigration and Multiculturalism Minister Jason Kenney, the Canada Start-Up Visa program recruits foreign entrepreneurs whom are “start-up innovators” to make Canada as the start-up destination of choice.

"Canada is open for business to the world's start-up entrepreneurs," said Minister Kenney. "Innovation and entrepreneurship are essential drivers of the Canadian economy. That is why we are actively recruiting foreign entrepreneurs - those who can build companies here in Canada that will create new jobs, spur economic growth and compete on a global scale - with our new start-up visa."
