I have a friend that would like to move to Canada and has just been released early from prison in the United States. He was serving a sentence for a 2nd degree murder charge that was committed when he was 17 years old. What is the likelihood of him being able to enter and/or gain permanent residency in Canada? I don't believe he qualifies for deemed rehabilitation as he has only just been released. Due to the fact that he was a young offender, would that work in his favour? He has many trades under his belt and is interested in bettering himself and being an asset to society.
