Created in 1986, the Quebec Investor program is the largest and most popular Canada business and investment immigration program.

The 2018/2019 program began accepting applications on September 10, 2018.

A maximum of 1,235 applications will be accepted from China and Macau and up to 665 from elsewhere. Applicants with advanced intermediate abilities in the French language are not subject to quota limitations.

Since the federal government terminated its version in 2014, the Quebec program has dominated the Canada business immigration landscape. 

It admits more business immigrants than all the provincial nomination programs combined, accounting for $1 billion in direct investment to the province since its inception.
