In gaining Canadian permanent residency (PR) South Africans enjoy the level of success in gaining permanent residency in Canada under the Start-Up Visa program. An incredible 90 percent of South African applicants in Canada’s Start-Up Visa program were accepted, while the average acceptance rate is 38 percent, according to Statistics Canada. This success makes South Africans lead the list of countries whose applicants are accepted under this program. In May 2021, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau highlighted the developing relations with African countries and announced that Canada ‘will continue to work together to find solutions to the global challenges of today and prepare for the ones of tomorrow.’
