The Live-in Program
The Live-in Caregiver Program was established by the Canadian government to assist its citizens to receive help with taking care of their loved ones . A foreign caregiver is brought into the Canada where a lack of Canadian professional caregivers are available.
To take part in this government program certain steps must be taken.
Bill C35 New Law Enacted on June 30, 2011, Was enforced at the operational level as of August 1, 2011, Bill C-35. This bill requires all agencies operating in Canada to have all LMO (Labour Market Opinion) applications overseen by a registered 3rd party which includes ICCRC certified immigration consultants, lawyers, paralagels and (notaries only in Quebec) .
What does this mean to you? This means that any agency will need to notify employers(YOU) that LMO applications will be overseen by an authorized 3rd party with ICCRC certified immigration credentials.
If you elect to use an agency without the ID number associated with one of the above mentioned professions you risk having your application declined by HRSDC and CIC.
Warning: Any unregistered agency who charges you a fee and then asks you to wrongly state to Service Canada/HRSDC that YOU prepared the LMO application will be operating outside the law Bill C-35 .
Your application can be rejected by HRSDC.
This also means that agencies will now be required to increase fees in order to cover the additional cost of hiring an authorized third party representative. So unfortunately families will once again see increased costs to hire a live in caregiver.
We encourage you to contact your local Member of Parliament to voice your opinion on this issue. Effective immediately, Guardian Angel Care Of Canada Inc. fees have changed to ensure we offer the highest level of approved services for our valued clients.

Interesting facts from the initial findings of a recent study:
A Rising Tide-Impact of Dementia on Canadian Society:
About 500,000 Canadians are living with
Alzheimer’s disease or a related dementia.
More than 71,000 are under the age of 65, and about 50,000 are under the age of 60.
Women make up 72 per cent of Canadians with Alzheimer’s.
Within just five years, another 250,000 Canadians could get Alzheimer’s or related dementia.
Within 25 years, that number could reach 1.3 million.
