A NATIONAL MULTIMEDIA PLATFORM - Canadian Immigrant
PRINT

     Canadian Immigrant has been a national
     magazine in print circulation since 2004. What began
     as a humble, monthly magazine has evolved into a
     dynamic multimedia platform utilizing strategic print
     publications to leverage the best of the brand in all
     its forms. Despite the downsizing of the mainstream
     print industry, studies show that, unlike newspapers,
     magazines are saved and shared long after their
     initial date of release. Canadian Immigrant is
     one of these publications! Recognizing these
     evolving trends, Canadian Immigrant will now be
     strategically published four times a year to support
     our content and events, and reach our loyal readers
     across all platforms.
