Immigration for same sex couple

[neetu kansal]

My friend and I want to live together and want to legally get married which is not permitted in our country. We are in relation from past 12 years.We have decided to move to Canada permanently because Canadian Law allows same sex marriage. She is already in Canada on Student Visa and I am still in India.
Please suggest and advise as to what can we do, by which way we both can get legally married and settled in Canada.

You will have to go through the normal means of immigration. This means finding work in Canada (job offer), and then immigrating. Or applying under the Skilled Worker or Provincial Nominee Category.

The CIC website has ample details on this: cic.gc.ca

You will not be eligible for a refugee case as not being allowed to get married is not considered persecution or threat to your life.
