Lmao!

Conrad Black, the former media baron who famously renounced his Canadian citizenship to become a British lord, is working to regain his citizenship.
...
"But I'm working on it, going through the normal channels like everyone else."
So... I wonder if he's posting here?

Re: Lmao!
Black on renouncing his canadian citizenship to become a lord described his Canadian citizenship as "an impediment to my progress in another more amenable jurisdiction"
Hmmm. Do we really want him back?
I wonder what route he is taking to re emmigrate to Canada anyway?

Re: Lmao!
He was talking about this last year I think, so it's good to know it's a lo-o-o-ong queue for him too and no rules have been bent

Pfeh. HWP would be the best thing to have ever happened to Mr. Black, and vis-a-vis, the Canadian media.
Just think what front pages he might be encouraged to print with her whispering in his ear!

Re: Lmao!
Hi
It should be interesting as to his PR application as he has outstanding criminal charges in the US, if CIC treats him as all other (not likely) they should not be processing until the charges are either dismissed or he is convicted.
