Not by itself. Prove the actual relevant ownership and control.
Explain the real organization relationship
Commercial terminology may have a broader meaning than the immigration category. Use genuine entity records rather than relying on one translated word.
The share purchase agreement, evidence that the purchase price was paid, the post-closing share register or membership ledger of the U.S. entity, the Canadian company's own share register and articles, and any shareholder agreement setting out control rights. The joint venture agreement, the constitutional documents of the American entity, the share register, and any agreement dealing with board appointments, veto rights or management control. Organize corporate formation records, ownership ledgers, financial material, organizational charts, payroll records, job descriptions, and detailed support letters. Share registers establish that the relationship still exists in the form that was approved, and they change more often than people expect through estate planning, buy-sell arrangements and financing. Add the U.S. entity's certificate of formation, its ownership ledger showing the fifty-fifty split, resolutions appointing the Canadian company's nominees, and the bank's signing-authority form.
