Canadian Immigration Summit 2016: Creating Tomorrow’s Immigration System
The Canadian Immigration Summit 2016 will build on the success of last year’s event which featured over 250 immigration leaders and practitioners from across Canada.

When: April 4-5, 2016
Where: Fairmont Chateau Laurier, Ottawa ON
The Summit will focus on the following themes:
- Supporting People: How can cross-sectoral stakeholders best work together to help immigrants and refugees succeed in Canada?
- Creating Partnerships: How can we strengthen partnerships to enhance Canada’s immigration system?
- Enhancing Prosperity: How can business, government, post-secondary institutions, and others leverage immigrants’ skills, connections, and talents to boost Canada’s economic performance?
