I am a business woman from the Manila, Philippines.
A friend and I started a small SWORDS AND KNIVES business recently
registered in Quebec Feb 2012--we are partners.
He is married and lives with his family in Montreal.
I am married too!
I have 4 children here, a property, a husband who is in the USA soon to be a citizen there,
and have our papers for the USA on the way
I am also currently running a small business of my own in the country.
I only travelled to Thailand for a short study visa.
I have only a CAN$200k networth, and
barely CAN$30k in the bank which is fluid because of all the business transactions.

Now, i need to visit Medieval Fairs, Medieval Re-enactment groups, Martial Arts School, etc to promote our business.
We have just started our business and have not sold much yet, we have been busy with production and everything.
Soon our website will be up and running for an online shopping.

Do i need to wait until next year when our sales pick up--to get into Canada?
That is the point in going there, to promote our business.
We think it is more effective to market the business personally than emails and internet Search Engines and facebook.

Given the facts, do I have a chance to have a multiple entry travel visa to Canada approved?

Please advice! Thanks!
