Manitoba Business Investor Stream
Businessmen and entrepreneurs get to choose between the given streams.
|
ENTREPRENEUR PATHWAY |
This program replaces the MPNP-B stream and is willing to recruit eligible business owners from all around the world. The applicants are given a temporary 2-year work visa and in that time they have to establish, purchase or become partners in an existing business in Manitoba. |

FARM INVESTOR PATHWAY |
This particular stream is for people involved in the agriculture sector who have proven farming and business experience.

Manitoba has been a region of Canada that has been welcoming immigrants for a very long time and being a peaceful province, one can find many reasons to migrate to Manitoba if they wish to permanently live in this province.
