Answer 1

If you want me to do a quick (free) assessment you can email me at [e-mail] but on initial glance I would say you have a good chance.

Answer 2

You sound like the sort of immigrants that Canada and Quebec salivate after.  They love the  young and highly educated (and healthy), being bi or trilingual is a bonus.  Go ahead and get your degree and study the Quebec patois. I don't know if you will be a shoo in but you will surely rise to the top of applicants.

www.cic.gc.ca is the Canadian immgration website and it has a French section.

Good luck

Answer 3

Quebec has their own standards for accepting immigrants. Compared to the rest of Canada, they expect more integration and are helpful for arrivals who do not speak French. Based on your qualifications, you seem to have a good chance of being granted permanent resident status, but having your qualifications recognized is a whole different matter. Please do your research carefully before moving to Quebec. Too many immigrants in all parts of Canada have been mislead and have a poorer quality of life compared to their countries of origin. Bonne chance!

Answer 4
