The process of expanding an established foreign business in Canada is straightforward with every province having its own registration procedure and fees. If you wish to do business in different provinces, then you must follow the required procedure for each province.
Starting a new business in Canada
If you are a non-Canadian and want to start a new business or company in Canada, then you can use the country’s startup visa program.
Successful applicants can tie up with private companies in Canada and receive help on funding and guidance on running their business.

- Must have the required proficiency in English or French

But you will have to be clear about the rules about who can and cannot start certain types of business in Canada. These rules are specific to each province. Some provinces provide the option to start the business by getting into a partnership or corporation agreement with one or more citizens or landed immigrants in Canada. You will first have to register your partnership or corporation in the province.
Owner Operator policy
Another option for business immigrants looking at investing in a business in Canada is using the Owner Operator policy offered by the Canadian government.
The Owner Operator policy is not a formal immigration program, but it is a work permit issued under the Temporary Foreign Worker Program (TFWP).
Under this policy foreign entrepreneurs who wish to acquire an existing business or start a new business in Canada must first apply for a work visa for the position of manager. They can qualify for a work permit as a Temporary Foreign Worker. They must be hired by an employer recognized as a business entity by the government.
In order to qualify as an owner-operator, the foreign employee/investor must be able to acquire controlling interest in the business he has been hired for. He can qualify as an owner-operator provided he gets the required immigration approval and displays sufficient interest to run the business.
