Hey!! Can someone help me!

So, i just got my working visa to canada on my old passport (i have a new one now). But its alright to enter canada, you just need to show up both of our passport. But The thing is that i need to enter canada before my old passport expires (22 june 16) otherwise my visa will go away. so my QUESTION is: how do i transfer my visa to my new passport so i dont need to enter canada 22 june Without loosing my visa. :(

Would be so grateful if someone could help me with this. :( :(

I do not think you really need to transfer your visa. All you have to do is carry both passports. It is the passport that is expired but visa is still valid.
