    Quebec is the largest of the thirteen provinces in Canada. The language of the province is French and people here love their French heritage. Immigrants favour Quebec for various reasons, including its impeccable food, music, and nightlife. It has stunning landscapes, warmth, and a multicultural lifestyle.

    The living cost in Quebec is lower than many other provinces of Canada though it offers similar benefits to Canadian citizens and residents. It has a world-class educational system and highly-reputed universities (such as Concordia University and McGill University). It also has one of the best healthcare and transport systems along with the insurance coverage for all its residents.

Skilled workers who do not know French are eligible to apply for its immigration program.

Once the Quebec selects you, you have to apply to the IRCC which screens you for admission to Canada.
