Attn. Rich's Nieces and Nephews

I bet you're thinking, hey, my uncle went to Canada. I want to freeze my butt off, too. (Actually, as I've said on this blog, the weather is quite mild in Vancouver, unlike the rest of Canada.)
In any event, here's an interesting bit of information. Applicants for permanent residency get five points for having a blood relative who lives here as a permanent resident or citizen. So while the article below just deals with uncles, it would apply to brothers and parents, too.
See this article, which just appeared in Metro newspaper, for more information.
