Canadian Immigration

Thanks to one of our followers for this message

I came across your website (http://saskgenealogy.blogspot.com/) while doing some research and was impressed at how much information and resources your site had as it relates to immigration.

 

Since your site was helpful, I wanted to pass along another great resource (http://www.immigrationdirect.ca/tracing-family-history-canada-immigration-citizenship-genealogy-guide/). This site provides us immigration news, informative blog and much more. It would be a great resource to include with others already listed.

 

You can never have too many resources! Thanks and let me know what you think.

 

 

Cheers,

Immigrants from China

New at Library and Archives Canada

May was Asian Heritage Month in Canada, during which we acknowledge the long and rich history of Asian Canadians and their contributions to Canada. Asian Heritage Month also provides an opportunity for Canadians across the country to reflect on and celebrate the contributions of Canadians of Asian heritage to the growth and prosperity of Canada.
To celebrate Asian culture, Library and Archives Canada (LAC) is pleased to announce the addition of references to its Immigrants from China database. It now includes references to the C.I.9 certificates issued to people of Chinese origin born in Canada and wanting to leave Canada for a limited time without losing their Canadian status. The actual records include a photograph and provide information such as the individual’s name, age and place of birth, as well as the port and date of departure, and the ship’s name.
