Benefits of Canadian PR and US Green Card

Both Canadian Permanent Residency and US Green Card offer numerous benefits to migrants.

As stated earlier, Opabene can permanently live in either of the two countries. However, in addition to this, he can also work and access the public healthcare systems in the US and Canada.
