Reviewed the categories for immigration and was unable to find one for retired persons. In our case, we have enough lifetime income so we would not be a burden to the government, in case that's a restrictive issue. Would appreciate any information on whether retired people are allowed in or not and if so, what category we would fall under? Thanks much!
 
Copied from other thread:

There is no immigration class for retired persons. You have to come out of retirement and immigrate as a worker under the skilled worker program (if your job eligible), under a provincial nominee program with a job offer or by getting a temporary work permit or a study permit to start and use that as a way to apply for immigration later. If you have business experience and money, an investor program, federally or under a provincial nominee program is also an option.

You can find the immigration programs here: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/index.asp
