É«ºüÈë¿Ú

The world is constantly evolving and so are we. Over the years, É«ºüÈë¿Ú has become one of the Internet's most popular sources of information on Canadian immigration—and we do not take that lightly.

We are humbled when we see our work cited in ground-breaking studies, picked up by other media, and being a part of the as it was for the federal government's study on the . It validates our efforts of delivering valuable information to anyone with an interest in Canadian immigration and motivates us to keep serving our readers.

It is impossible to tell the story of É«ºüÈë¿Ú without mentioning . In 1994, the late Attorney David Cohen launched one of the first online assessment tools for the on the CanadaVisa website. Before the Internet, you either had to go to a government official or an immigration lawyer in order to see if you were eligible for Canadian immigration.

CanadaVisa became the place to check your eligibility for Canadian immigration, and get help from a lawyer if you needed it. The content strategy on CanadaVisa was to offer centralized information on all of Canada's economic immigration programs. Although you can access the government webpages separately, CanadaVisa gave users an option to find information on these programs at one location.

It soon became clear that there needed to be a way to update users on the new happenings in the Canadian immigration space. Without a unified news source, it is difficult to keep track of all the new immigration draws, and policy changes that affect immigrants.

Where CanadaVisa would have static content, É«ºüÈë¿Ú would offer a newsletter that would keep people up-to-date with the ever-changing Canadian immigration landscape.

The first É«ºüÈë¿Ú story ever was published on November 30, 1996. It was an update on an inland visa processing post in Vegreville, Alberta. After that, we published a series of Q & A articles where lawyers answered readers' questions.
