Just bought a canoe
 

Will this speed up my citizenship?

Only if its a Birch bark one :D

Absolutely, a canoe is as "Canadian" as Gordon Lightfoot and Stomin' Tom Connors - make sure you send a picture of you/canoe with your application (a canoe made of birch bark (as sugges ted) would be a vey nice added touch)....how could immigration refuse you?......but my question is....how on earth would you ever transport it to Canada? - unless you intend to paddle over from the UK (hahhaha)......

Best of luck with your application!!!

I believe Mr boxer is already in Canada, and doesn't intend to paddle from the UK/Hong Kong :D You sure are getting a lot done since getting here eh ?

A subaru, now a canoe, what next, a skidoo and ATV?

I think a hockey outfit would impress Immigration even more :D

Or one of those T-shirts, that say "Canada Eh !", that should definitely clinch at the citizenship test.

And don't forget to say to the immigration officer: "How do you do?" and immediately turn away.......


This starts looking like another rant: Canadian stereotypes :)

All wonderful suggestions - BUT humming a few bars from a Gordon Lightfoot or Stomin Tom Connor song (especially STC if you live in the Maritimes - and carrying a stomin board) will do the trick - the immigration officer could never refuse his citizenship!!!!!

How about coming in humming this??

I think you should also include the baseball cap with the canoe. You'd feel like a native!!

I can't wait to hook-up with a French-Canadian girl!:p

The ones ive met have got tempers!!lol

My kinda of girls! They make the best facial expressions when they "arrive". :D

Such a typical "male sexist" remark - obviously you've never been with an "irish girl"!!!! for both "temper and when they "arrive"!!!!!!

Obviously, we're getting a little "off topic" in more ways than one............
