Help us celebrate immigrant success in Canada

Nominations now open for the 12th annual RBC Top 25 Canadian Immigrant Awards

TORONTO, January , 2020 – With around 350,000 immigrants coming to Canada annually*, Canada stands as an extraordinary example for welcoming immigrants and refugees. Immigrants increasingly make-up a large portion of our population and have made – and continue to make – immeasurable contributions to the Canadian economy, Canadian society and Canada overall.

For more than a decade, the RBC Top 25 Canadian Immigrant Awards program has been a leader in sharing and celebrating inspiring stories of immigrants. The Top 25 are the only national awards that celebrate immigrant success: its winners represent the incredible achievements that immigrants make in Canada every day.

It’s Time to Nominate for the 2020 Awards!
Canadian Immigrantand title sponsor Royal Bank of Canada are now calling on all Canadians to nominate an immigrant or refugee who has an inspirational story to share at www.canadianimmigrant.ca/rbctop25.

From rags to riches, from trauma to triumph, the stories of immigrants to Canada are impactful and inspiring. Immigrants who have been honoured with this prestigious national award in past years include spoken word poet Wali Shah, TV icon Monika Deol, celebrity restaurateur Vikram Vij, prima ballerina Chan Hon Goh, philanthropist John Volken and many unsung heroes who have demonstrated incredible contributions in their communities and for the country.

“At Canadian Immigrant, our goal is to support newcomers succeed in their new home. One of the ways we do this is by sharing immigrant success stories. Through the RBC Top 25 Canadian Immigrant Awards, we put the spotlight on some very inspiring people who are shaping this country,” said Ramya Ramanathan, Editor of Canadian Immigrant, a national multimedia platform and producer of the awards.

“RBC is honoured to be a part of the RBC Canadian Immigrant Awards to celebrate the outstanding accomplishments that immigrants have made in this great country,” said Amit Sadhu, Vice President, Newcomer Strategy, RBC. “These awards have become a prominent fixture to recognize immigrants and their importance to Canada. RBC has a longstanding commitment to immigrant success in Canada and our involvement in these awards enables us to embody this commitment in a very meaningful way.”

Nominees must be aged 15 or older, hold landed immigrant (permanent resident) or citizen status in Canada, and reside in Canada.

RBC Entrepreneur Award
This will be the sixth consecutive year that one of the Top 25 winners will also be selected for the additional RBC Entrepreneur Award, honouring one of the Top 25 who has demonstrated entrepreneurial excellence in business. No additional application is required to apply for this award.
