049: Quebec Immigration Programs with Genevieve Henault

Canadian Immigration Podcast Have you ever wondered why the Province of Quebec has a separate immigration program?  In this episode of the Canadian Immigration Podcast, I caught up to Quebec Immigration Lawyer Genevieve Henault who took some time to answer this question as well give us a great overview of the various permanent and temporary immigration options unique to the Province of Quebec. One thing is for certain, after listening to Genevieve's interview, she just about makes me want to relocate to Quebec....just about, that is!

This is something that we have not yet had an opportunity to address on the Podcast and as such, I was delighted to have Genevieve join me to share from her wealth of experience practicing as an immigration lawyer in Quebec.
