Does anyone know how it works or how easy/hard it is, or know someone who is good to talk to? We're trying the lawyer referral service but I'm not sure if we're getting the right people to talk to.

I have some family that's in a fairly dangerous situation. They're a lawyer in a country that's pretty violent and corrupt, and the threat level is high for them to the point they're exploring options to get out of the country.

I've read the government websites and I don't think they'd qualify as a refugee.

If they wanted to move to Canada how would that work? Could we invite or sponsor them? Do they come as a visitor and apply? Could they get a work visa or whatever?
