^ Sam above me is obviously quite clueless ^ Basically you have two options to becoming a Canadian citizen: 1) Get married to a Canadian... 2) Apply to a college/university as an International Student which would give you a Student VISA. Once you're done your studies and you're qualified to work, you will need to apply for a Work VISA which entitles you to legally work in the country (you're not a citizen yet though) and then 3 years later, you can apply for citizenship.

There's a lot of information on this website, including studying in Canada. Have a good look at both the studying and the immigration part and plan accordingly.

Quebec is offering Canadian citizenship to international students who graduate from any university in the province. http://www.sds.uwo.ca/int/visa/index.html?pr#about

Good For you! That's exactly what I plan to do! I plan to go to college in Vancouver B.C., buy my own house, and apply for a citizenship

If you come to Canada on a student visa you have to return home when your studies are completed. If you wish to immigrate to Canada you have to apply for immigration from your home country. You would have to qualify as a skilled worker to come back. If you are here on student visa you CANNOT stay once you studies are finished. You CANNOT work while here on a student visa(except on campus). Once your studies are over you MUST return home. You CANNOT just stay here and skip to the front of the immigration line. Also we do not issue Green Cards, that is an American thing.I do not know where people get the idea they can just stay here once they have gone to school here.
