How does Canada help newcomers adjust to living in Canada?
Citizenship and Immigration Canada offers programs and services to help newly arrived immigrants adapt and settle in Canada. Under the Canada-Quebec Accord, Quebec is responsible for settlement and integration services inside its jurisdiction. As a result of Settlement Renewal, the provinces of British Columbia and Manitoba have assumed responsibility for the administration and delivery of settlement programming and services. Up-to-date details may be obtained by contacting a CIC Call Centre. Programs and services are a bridge to help newcomers adapt, normally during their first year in Canada. They help new arrivals to become self-reliant, participating members of Canadian society as quickly as possible. They also help Canadians understand the immigration, settlement and integration process. Local Immigration offices provide interested organizations and agencies with information about immigrants and immigration.
