I give her super credit for effort, that took some guts!!

Canadians Visiting the USA while undergoing the visa process, my free advice:

1) Always tell the TRUTH. never lie to the POE officer

2) Be confident in ur replies

3) keep ur response short and to the point, don't tell ur life story!!

4) look the POE officer in the eye when speaking to them. They are looking for people lieing and have been trained to find them!

5) Pack light! No job resumes with you

6) Bring ties to Canada (letter from employer when ur expected back at work, lease, etc etc)

7) Always be polite, being rude isn't going to get ya anywhere, and could make things worse!!

8) Have a plan in case u do get denied (be polite) It wont harm ur visa application if ur denied,that is if ur polite and didn't lie! Refer to #1

When I was a little kid and heard the SSB, I wondered what a "donserly" was. That didn't make a whole lot of sense to me. Later on I learned it was "dawn's early."

I had a habit of unintentionally hearing the wrong lyrics of most songs. When it came to Jingle Bells, I heard "bells on bobcats ring" instead of "bells on bob tails ring." :blink:

Principal says 'O Canada' uproar taken out of context

New Brunswick educator says he's considering his future in teaching

Feb 09, 2009 03:44 PM

THE CANADIAN PRESS

SPRINGFIELD, N.B. – A New Brunswick principal who eliminated O Canada at the start or the school day says he is considering his future in teaching.

In an interview with CBC-TV, Erik Millett says his decision to stop the anthem at the start of the school day was taken out of context.

"I received probably over 2,000 emails, most of them hurling abuse at me, saying everything that I should be at the end of a bayonet, I should be shipped out of the country, I should be put on the front lines with the Taliban," he said in a broadcast interview with CBC today.

"I bore a very heavy price for something that I think was very, very misrepresented in the media."

Millett could not be reached for additional comment.

The principal of Belleisle Elementary School in Springfield, near Saint John, has said he stopped the anthem after receiving complaints from two parents who objected to it on religious grounds.

He told the CBC he would not comment on the religious issues involved because they are private.

Instead of playing the anthem every day, the school played O Canada at its monthly assemblies.

The anthem was reinstated last week by order of the local school board after it caused a furor in the House of Commons and prompted a parent of a child at the school to push for O Canada's return.

New Brunswick Education Minister Kelly Lamrock later said he would change regulations to make the playing or singing of O Canada mandatory in elementary and high schools across the province.

The principal of Belleisle Elementary School in Springfield, near Saint John, has said he stopped the anthem after receiving complaints from two parents who objected to it on religious grounds.

So, for 2 students out of how many, he eliminates the national anthem?

Why can't they just stand out in the hall like every other Jehovah's Witness in the country has done for generation after generation? I'm sure they'll receive far less ridicule for that, than for taking away the anthem entirely :P

divorced - April 2010 moved back to Ontario May 2010 and surrendered green card

PLEASE DO NOT PRIVATE MESSAGE ME OR EMAIL ME. I HAVE NO IDEA ABOUT CURRENT US IMMIGRATION PROCEDURES!!!!!

While I don't think they should ban the Anthem, it's rather stupid that so many idiots felt the need to send the poor guy hate email.

:lol: Nothing wrong with a little hate mail or a nasty gram if it is done in an intelligent way. Unfortunately saying something about being at the other end of a gun isn't very intelligent. haha

"...My hair's mostly wind,

My eyes filled with grit

My skin's white then brown

My lips chapped and split

I've lain on the prairie and heard grasses sigh

I've stared at the vast open bowl of the sky

I've seen all the castles and faces in clouds

My home is the prairie and for that I am proud…

If You're not from the Prairie, you can't know my soul

You don't know our blizzards; you've not fought our cold

You can't know my mind, nor ever my heart

Unless deep within you there's somehow a part…

A part of these things that I've said that I know,

The wind, sky and earth, the storms and the snow.

Best say that you have - and then we'll be one,

For we will have shared that same blazing sun." - David Bouchard
