Those targeted are entrepreneurs and businesspeople with a minimum net worth of CDN $800,000 accumulated through the operation, control or management of a profitable business.<\/p>\n<p>Once the government processes the applicant\u2019s forms and confirms receipt of the required investment, the investor and his family are issued a visa allowing them to live, work and travel anywhere in Canada. At the<br \/>\nend of the five-year investment period, the full capital is returned.
