karol,

I think going the tourist route is quite dangerous and its not worth taking that risk. I think you have received lot of good advice here..

One thing that come to my mind is - DCF. I don't know how it works for Canada - but try to look up that. Maybe u'll can get married in Canada and then file for him via DCF process.. I am sure if this is a bad idea others will write soo.. but do look into it..

Perseverance and patience is what pays off.. There could be a shortcut in life - but u have to ask urself is it worth taking it.. going back to my basics - i feel that the shortcut always sounds attractive and pulls one in its direction - but it is wisdom n trust in oneself n God that helps one make the hard but correct decisions in life.. So ponder about it and don't jump the gun without throughly researching all ur options.

U have this great forum and tons of people for support..
