Canada's Citizenship and Immigration Minister Chris Alexander invited Canadians from coast to coast to coast to take part in Citizenship Week 2013 activities happening in communities across Canada.

"Citizenship Week calls attention to the rights, privileges and responsibilities we have as citizens of this great country," said Alexander. "Canadians understand that citizenship should not be simply a passport of convenience. Citizenship is a pledge of mutual responsibility and a shared commitment to values rooted in our history."

Alexander delivered his remarks at a special citizenship ceremony at the base of the CN Tower. It was the first of 58 such ceremonies across Canada this week where more than 4,400 people will take the Oath of Citizenship for the first time. Many more Canadians will participate in reaffirmation ceremonies nationwide.

As mentioned in last week's Speech from the Throne, to protect the value of Canadian citizenship, the Government will introduce the first comprehensive reforms to the Citizenship Act in more than a generation.

"Canadian citizenship is uniquely precious and coveted around the globe. Those of us who are fortunate enough to have it share in all of the great advantages it confers," said Alexander.

Minister Alexander Expands Start-up Visa Program to Include Business Incubators

Canada's Citizenship and Immigration Minister Chris Alexander announced a new visa stream to attract foreign entrepreneurs to Canada.

"As part of our government's focus on jobs, growth and long-term prosperity, it is critical for Canada to attract the best entrepreneurs and innovators from around the world," said Alexander. "This new stream will partner Canada's world class business incubators with immigrant entrepreneurs, driving economic growth and placing Canada ahead of its competitors in the global economy of the 21st century."

The launch of a new Business Incubator stream under the Start-up Visa (SUV) Program to recruit dynamic foreign entrepreneurs will complement existing venture capital and angel investor streams. It will attract early-stage and high growth businesses, and entrepreneurs who can contribute to a culture of innovation and commercialization in Canada.

Business incubators provide promising entrepreneurs with valuable mentorship, and help them to attract investors and grow their start-ups into sustainable businesses that can create jobs in Canada.

"We are honoured to partner with Citizenship and Immigration Canada on this exciting new initiative," said CABI President David McNamara. "Our mission is to help small businesses grow and succeed. Connecting immigrant entrepreneurs with Canada's accredited business incubators will broaden our respective networks and bring us all to the next level. The possibilities are endless!"

Citizenship and Immigration Canada will designate eligible business incubator programs in consultation with the Canadian Association of Business Incubation (CABI). The new stream will begin accepting applications on October 26, 2013.

Cold weather and hockey may be internationally recognized symbols of Canada, but beyond its climate and recreation activities, this great nation has a lot to offer newcomers.

In 2012, Canada welcomed a record number of immigrants for the seventh consecutive year.  

So, what makes Canada so great?

1 Standard of Living

Canada consistently presents high scores on the OECD (Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development) quality of life index.  The average household net-adjusted disposable income is US$28,194 in Canada, more than the OECD average of US$23,047 per year and life expectancy is 81 years, one year higher than the OECD average of 80 years.

2 Labour Market

Canada ranks high on the OECD labour market with 72.5 percent of individuals aged 15-64 employed (compared to 67.3 percent in the United States) in 2013.   Canada continues to be attractive to skilled newcomers. Between now and 2021, a million jobs are expected to go unfilled in Canada.  These expected labour shortages mean there are more opportunities for skilled newcomers.

3 Health Care

Canadians are immensely proud of our health care system, and with good reason.  Citizens and permanent residents enjoy access to publicly-funded health care that guarantees coverage of medically necessary services regardless of income level.

Called Scarborough Strides, the week-and-a-half-long initiative - which included a health and wellness speaker series, educational sessions for students, school and neighbourhood workouts, and corporate fundraising events - was not only successful in getting thousands of community members focused on health, but also raised $50,000 for The Scarborough Hospital Cancer Care Program.

The grand-finale concert, which took place at Albert Campbell Square, celebrated the success of the initiative with crowd-pleasing performances by Canadian R&B singer and Juno nominee Kim Davis, multiple Juno award winner Jully Black, and hip hop duo Perfeck Strangers.

It was Scarborough's elementary and high school students, though, who stole the show, when they surprised the audience with a flash mob dance before the concert started. The 800 students, who ranged in ages from five to 17, met regularly in groups during the last couple of weeks to practice their moves.
