ALL NEW Simply the Best!

Get Inspired: Being a proud recipient of last year’s RBC’s Top 25 Canadian Immigrants 2013 award, my team and I are happy to feature some very inspirational recipients awarded this year. Immigrants from the Philippines, Bangladesh, Tanzania and China were among those who were voted this year.

They are Heroes, Leaders, Advocates, Innovators, Artists, ordinary people with extraordinary passion! Their never ending commitments and contributions are recognized and celebrated for making Canada a better place. Their journeys begin with a dream, and through hard work, passion and determination, they then share that dream with the world. This show is to recognize their inspiring achievements!

They are proud Canadians. They are passionate, talented, honest and driven to make a difference. These inspirational immigrants have made various remarkable contributions to be voted RBC’s Top 25 Canadian Immigrants 2014. We will take you inside the celebration of their inspirational journey from the Philippines, Bangladesh, Tanzania and China!
