I dont know about the Federal,But on the Provincial Level,That is an Ineligible Business,We would deny that application,Probably same for the Goverment of Canada
Hi.
Business for the purpose of immigration to canada means a "voible business" that can generate employment of at least one person through your share in the business registered in Canada. you must have at least 25% share in that busness. Apparently investment in Real estate doesnot entitle you to a business class immigration as owning a building doesnot generate employment.
