Through Investor Programs within Provincial Immigration Programs or by being assigned to a Canadian branch of a company you own or work for in your home country, you can obtain a Work Permit and eventually open the path to Permanent Residency. It is also possible to start the same process by taking over an established company in Canada. During your time in Canada on a work permit, your spouse will also have the right to work, and your children can benefit from free education at public schools during primary and secondary school. Although the decision-making authority lies with each region's Education Department, this is generally the practice.
If you are pursuing the path of starting, acquiring, or transferring between companies, you will need to comply with a Permanent Residency program that considers your Canadian work experience after at least one year of full-time work. For this, you should apply to the Residency Programs prepared at the Federal or Provincial levels.
