Immigrating to Canada?
The Sun Rises in the East

The Atlantic Jewish Council is committed to enhancing the viability of Jewish life in Atlantic Canada, and wishes to recruit Jewish immigrants who would like to establish themselves in the region and participate in Jewish community life.

Immigration committees have been established in Halifax (e-mail Edna LeVine), Fredericton (e-mail Fredericton Immigration Committee), Saint John (email Joseph Arditti), and Moncton (e-mail Nicole Druckman) to pursue approaches for attracting Jewish immigrants.


Strategic Goals

The Atlantic Jewish Council wishes to ensure that potential Jewish immigrants are familiar with the high quality of family life in Atlantic Canada and in particular with the Jewish support services. One of the tools the Council is using to make potential Jewish immigrants aware of Atlantic Canada is its website. In addition, the Council will see other means of making potential immigrants aware of the benefits of life in Atlantic Canada.

The Halifax Immigration Committee has been exploring opportunities to work with other community agencies to develop other means of attracting immigrants to our region. In addition, the committee is working with community organizations to ensure there is adequate information on employment and community supports for immigrants.

Most Canadian provinces have Provincial Nomination programs that encourage immigrants to settle in those provinces and benefit their economies. Learn about settling in the Atlantic Provinces as a provincial nominee.
