it depends
-
it depends on the qualifications of the applicants and the method under which you are inquiring about Canadian residency. If you come from a country in disrest, you may be able to apply as a refugee. The process is much faster, but you require proof that you and your family are being prosecuted outside of the law. (i.e. political, religiuos, race, etc.)
Now, if you are applying as a qualified or skilled worker, you need to have the "points" to qualify.
Bringing all your family at once is hard, specially given that you will need to proof your financial capacity to support them all for a period of one year, but of course, it depends on the qualifications of your extended family.
I hope this helps. I actually found the section on visas and permits in this site to be very useful, and of course, you can always visit the site of Citizenship and Immigration Canada.
