My mother is on ODSP and she want to sponsor her sis with her two kids both under age of 7 she recently lost her husband and her parents(kids grandparents).
Is there any way to sponsor her or anyway to bring her kids to canada.
Me my siblings and our dad all are full time worker and are not dependent on our mother.
we provide our aunt financial help and basic needs.
Please help as she is in need of desperate help.

Hello,
Thank you for sharing your mother's situation and questions with us.
We can appreciate that you would be interested in this type of information.
You can find some information on who is eligible to sponsor in our Settlement.Org How do I sponsor parents, grandparents, adopted children and other relatives? article.
Here is an excerpt,
Who is eligible to be sponsored?
You can sponsor relatives or family members under this class if they are:
[...]
- Your brother or sister, nephew or niece, grandson or granddaughter, if they are an orphan, under 18 years of age and they do not have a spouse, common-law partner, or conjugal partner.
- Any other person with whom you have a family relationship if you do not have a spouse, common-law partner, conjugal partner, son, daughter, mother, father, brother, sister, grandfather, grandmother, uncle, aunt, niece or nephew who is a Canadian citizen, a registered Indian, a permanent resident or whom you may sponsor
- Your parents or grandparents
(Italics and bold ours)
They may want to see if there are any other options or way they can immigrate to Canada. You can find some information in our Settlement.Org How can I apply to immigrate to Ontario? article.
I hope this information is helpful. Please let us know if you have further questions and if there is any follow up to your question/situation.
