Dear Welcome to Canada community,

Since the beginning of this month, we've been contacting the randomly selected winners to confirm their prizes - starting with the grand prize, then moving on to the second and third tiers.

This process takes some time as we wait for all winners to confirm, so if you haven't seen a confirmation email from us yet, there's still a chance your name could be next!

If you participated, please check your email (including your spam or junk folder) regularly to see if you've been selected. If we don't hear from you by the deadline stated in the email, the prize will be forfeited, and we'll contact the next randomly selected winner. Don't miss your chance to claim exciting prizes! ๐ŸŽ

All Summer 2025 Survey winners will be announced on our social media channels. Stay tuned!
