Interested in Immigrating to Canada from Uganda?
There are not as many Ugandan Canadians as other foreign nationals. Ugandan Canadians refer to those who have Ugandan descent and live in Canada. Canada is said to be a very well kept secret from Ugandans! Although Canada is one of the most welcoming countries for immigrants, Ugandan immigrants are not very prevalent in Canada. If you are a Ugandan national now is a great time to start a new life or improve your live in this diverse country.

Although most immigrants that move to Canada choose Ontario, Quebec, British Columbia, Alberta, etc. most Ugandans don’t choose the obvious province!
