Canada is one of the most progressive countries in the world. Yet, it only has few people living on it. That is why the country invited lots of immigrants to come and settle here. Immigrants are so lucky to be here because the government itself has lots of initiatives for them to settle here easily. One of these is the free English study that they called LINC. I am one of the recipients of the said program. This program helps the immigrants to be more confident and have the capacity to interact with the Canadians in their daily living. The teachers in this program give incentive to their students to do better in English. The transition that this program gives to every single immigrant is really a big help in terms of daily communication. The immigrants really benefit from this program. We, the immigrants, are very thankful to the government of Canada because it helps us to settle in this beautiful country.
