All kinds of people, due to various reasons such as family, business, raising children, etc., have different choices. They can either choose to keep the Maple Leaf Card or choose to become a citizen by naturalization. In fact, there has never been an absolute standard to judge whether naturalization is better than retaining the Maple Leaf preference. How to choose really needs to be made based on the individual's own needs.

If you like to get involved in politics, apply for citizenship

When you hold a PR card, you can generally fully enjoy social welfare and medical security. However, those with PR cards lack the right to vote and be elected.

If you are passionate about participating in Canadian politics, want to vote for a political party you believe in, or even want to try your hand at politics, then applying for naturalization is something you must do.

If you like to travel on the go, then please apply for naturalization

This is the main reason why many people apply for naturalization, that is, the Canadian passport. As we all know, the Canadian passport can enjoy visa-free treatment in Western countries, such as the famous tourist destinations of Europe.

Holding a Canadian passport allows you to "go as soon as you want" without having to worry about applying for a visa first. It is for this reason that many people who love traveling are tempted and choose to become a citizen of this country.

If you are going to return to your country frequently, please keep your PR card first

Once you become a Canadian citizen, you have nothing to do with being a Chinese citizen. Whether you are going back to China for a business trip or to visit relatives, you have to go to the embassy to apply for a Chinese visa, and you have to pay money every time.

In fact, many people have been refused visas because they have the tendency to immigrate. This reason is ridiculous. Therefore, if you have family or business in China and need to return to the country frequently, it is best not to apply for naturalization yet. Although applying for a Chinese tourist visa is not complicated, the strict restrictions will make you think: I am obviously Chinese, why am I still so frustrated when I return to my home country?

If you love to go to the United States, there is not much difference between naturalization and PR.

Canada's core cities are all located on the border between the United States and Canada, so naturally there will be a group of people who frequently go to the United States. If you think about it from this perspective, the difference between the two is not very big. If you become a Canadian citizen, you will naturally get visa-free treatment; but even if you hold a PR card, you can also apply for a 10-year tourist visa.

The process is extremely simple and can usually be completed in just a few days. Therefore, from the perspective of traveling to the United States, there is not much difference between PR and naturalization.

Compared with temporary visa, the advantages of Canadian PR card:

There are study visas, tourist visas, work visas, etc. These types of visas are short-term stay visas in Canada and are called temporary visas. Compared with these visas, the main advantages of the Canadian PR card include the following:

Although you still need to apply for a visa when traveling or studying abroad, the procedures will be much simplified.

The time is longer, even if you don’t renew, the PR card can last you at least 5 years.

Travel freely between China and Canada and enjoy the convenience of self-service customs clearance.

Enjoy comprehensive Canadian benefits and will not be treated differently.

Compared with the Canadian PR card, the advantages of Canadian citizenship:

As mentioned before, compared with PR card, the main advantages of nationality are:

Visa-free travel to nearly 130 countries, allowing you to travel around the world smoothly.

Can work in national political and legal units.

Have the right to vote and be elected.

In a word, in terms of the degree of improvement, switching from temporary visa to PR card is a significant improvement. However, there is not much difference between PR card and nationality for ordinary people. Therefore, when deciding between naturalization and PR, you must consider where you plan to develop in the future, take into account your personal needs and family situation, and make a rational decision.

At present, Canada's population is experiencing difficulties in growth. The number of children born in Canada is decreasing. Even next year, the number of senior citizens in Canada will exceed the number of children (under 14 years old) for the first time. Canadian society is in a serious aging problem, followed by a series of situations such as labor shortages, weak economic growth, and financial constraints. Therefore, it is very necessary to increase immigration.

It is worth noting that Canada’s immigration is not only quite high in quantity, but also in the forefront in terms of quality. Currently, most of the Chinese immigrating to Canada are domestic high-net-worth individuals. Their purpose of immigrating is precisely because they value Canada’s high-quality educational resources.

Nowadays, the trend of studying abroad is becoming increasingly younger. Every year, a large number of students apply to study in high schools in Canada. In China, if students in high school can adapt to foreign examinations and learning systems as quickly as possible, and if they can continue to further their studies and learn the language before reaching adulthood, their chances of being admitted to world-renowned universities will be greatly increased.

For high school students, Canada is a popular country to consider studying abroad. More importantly, in terms of teaching quality, Canadian education and American education belong to the same North American system. Its teaching quality is first-rate, and the academic qualifications obtained can be recognized in North America and even around the world.

Take the top private high school in North America, Linton College in Canada, as an example. The college has an extremely strong teaching staff. Each group of teachers in the school is a licensed teacher certified by the Ontario Teachers Association. This is not common in ordinary private schools.

From a geographical point of view, Linton College in Canada is located in the town of Linton, Hamilton, which is located on the southern shore of Lake Ontario, one of the five largest freshwater lakes in North America. The province where Linton College in Canada is located is Ontario. This province has a long history and extremely rich educational resources.
