Thanks Glady!

An hour to go to Canada Day - half an hour in Newfoundland! Happy Canada Day everyone - the skies here are putting on their own display - nature's types of fireworks - hey, we may even get a bit of rain out it yet! Hope everyone has a great day.

Happy Canada Day!

Probably the last year many of us will actually be residing in Canada though ... :star:

I'm having mixed feelings about today for that reason.

And just when I thought this immigration thing couldn't get any more difficult ...

... we're faced with the challenge of adding blue to that red and white jello mold. :o

happy best damn country in the world day!!!

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
