In recent years, under the trend of economic globalization, it has become increasingly common for high-net-worth individuals to move overseas. Some do so to pursue better career development, some for their children's education, and others for retirement and medical care... For investors, when planning their immigration, besides choosing their preferred country, which city should they choose to live in? The following list provides the answer!


Recently, the 2022 "Global Liveability Index" released by the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU) shows that three Canadian cities—Toronto, Vancouver, and Calgary—have made the list, ranking in the top 8 with impressive results! The EIU Global Liveability Index surveys 172 cities worldwide, scoring them based on more than 30 factors across five categories: stability, healthcare, culture and environment, education, and infrastructure. It also includes indicators related to the COVID-19 pandemic, such as capacity limits at various venues.

Regarding the reasons for the three Canadian cities making the list, the EIU liveability report states that as Canada's largest city, Toronto is a true cultural melting pot, with approximately 50% of its residents being immigrants from over 100 ethnic groups worldwide, speaking more than 140 languages. Toronto's rich and diverse international cuisine, all-encompassing street culture, the vibrant Caribbean Carnival, the star-studded Toronto International Film Festival, the world-renowned English theater scene, the thrilling Honda Indy Toronto, and the dazzling nightlife... give you countless reasons to fall in love with it.


Vancouver has always been recognized as one of the most liveable cities in the world, with its beautiful natural environment, multicultural atmosphere, and diverse cuisine throughout the city. It is also Hollywood's favorite filming location, known as "Hollywood North." There are cherry blossoms in spring, maple leaves in autumn, and unparalleled beauty of the ocean, mountains, and forests. Living here brings a high sense of happiness.


Calgary has some of the cleanest air in the world, with an annual average PM2.5 content of only 5 per cubic centimeter, far lower than other cities! It is also the sunniest city in Canada, earning it the reputation of "Sunshine City." Importantly, housing prices here are low, the median household income is relatively high, and housing affordability is strong.


In fact, Canada has consistently ranked at the forefront internationally in education, social transparency, social freedom, quality of life, and economic freedom. Canadian society is highly inclusive and is a multicultural country where various cultures converge. It has strong cultural tolerance and no racial discrimination, respecting the customs of people from different countries and races. Canada has been named the world's most inclusive country and the world's safest country. In the Human Development Report published by the United Nations Development Programme, which uses multiple factors such as natural geography, resources and climate, environmental quality, living conditions, healthcare levels, social welfare, life expectancy, education levels, and actual per capita income for comprehensive evaluation, Canada has been awarded the title of "the best place to live" for many consecutive years.


As a traditional major immigration country, Canada has always been a very popular destination. The Canadian immigration authorities continue to introduce various favorable immigration policies aimed at attracting more people to immigrate to Canada. For those with immigration intentions, now is the golden time to immigrate to Canada! From 2022 to 2024, Canada plans to accept a total of over 1.3 million immigrants. The massive immigration quota accommodates applicants from different backgrounds. With a starting investment of 150,000 CAD, you can quickly immigrate to Canada with your whole family and obtain a Maple Leaf Card in one step. A good opportunity is hard to come by; those who intend to immigrate to Canada, act now!


Currently, among the various types of immigration programs in Canada, employer-sponsored immigration is highly sought after by investors. Among them, the Canadian skilled worker employer-sponsored immigration program, with its many advantages such as low thresholds, low costs, and fast approval, provides a convenient path for investors to quickly immigrate to Canada and is receiving significant attention!
