I am preparing the documents that i will take with me when landing in canada as PR.I have prepared documents in English like :
- Birth certificates or baptismal certificates
- Marriage certificates
- School records, diplomas or degrees for each family member traveling with you
- Trade or professional certificates and licences
- Letters of reference from former employers
- Driver’s licence

do u think is there any need to authenticate these documents from the Canadian embassy at my home country?

or even authenticate them from ministry of foreign affairs of my home country?

thank you

None of the documents you have listed are required for the "landing" process. You need your passport, COPR and proof of funds (if non family class)

The other documents should be translated, but don't have to be notarized. They will come in handy in your job search.

No. As CIC doesn't certify documents.
