Learn about our guest speaker
Our main speaker at the webinar was Kristina McPherson from Toronto. Kristina left her home country Jamaica for Canada as a student eight years ago and became a Canadian citizen in 2019.
She is a true expert on the matter and the author of the book:
From Foreign Student to Canadian Citizen - And Everything in Between: How to Move to Canada and Become a Canadian Citizen like me
It is a clear and concise step-by-step guide and will give you answers to a lot of the questions you have about Canadian immigration.
The book is already available on Amazon as a paperback and for download onto your Kindle. An audio version will soon be published on Audible.
