Canadian Immigrant is a free monthly magazine and daily website for recent arrivals to Canada. The properties are owned by Torstar, and are currently published by Metroland Media Group, with print distribution throughout British Columbia, Alberta, Manitoba, Ontario and Nova Scotia. Founded in 2004 by Naeem "Nick" Noorani, a social entrepreneur who immigrated to Canada in 1998 from Dubai, Canadian Immigrant aims at "informing, educating, motivating and connecting" immigrants across Canada. Noorani contemplated launching a magazine for immigrants following a layoff from his job as an advertising director for a technology company the same year. After successfully completing the Burnaby YMCA Self-Employment Program, Noorani started the magazine out of his home in North Vancouver, British Columbia with some funding, several suppliers, an editor, an art director and himself selling the advertising. On April 28, 2004, the first issue was launched with MP Ujjal Dosanjh and Harmony Airways' David Ho on the cover. Subsequent issues have since been published each month, featuring successful immigrant bios; columns from specialists in areas such as banking, immigration law and real estate; and stories of personal triumph. In 2005, Minto Roy became an ownership partner of the Canadian Immigrant Magazine. More information...
