A really quick favour please!
Hi all, first a little background. I come from Manchester, England and have been with my girlfriend who is Canadian citizen since 2005. In 2007 I applied for Permanent Residency and got an AOR of NOV 2007. Like many others from the same time period I have been thrown on the scrapheap by CIC without any communication. We have been flying to and fro only seeing each other 3 times a year since 2004.
My girlfriend recently entered a competition with BMW Canada to win the Ultimate Adventure which is $20,000 to carry out the trip of your dreams. She got through to the final 5 and along with the other finalists submitted her 1 minute long video saying what she would do with the money. If she wins we will get married on a ferry in BC and then go and explore the province, whale watching, drive into the mountains, go on a zip line etc as the honeymoon thus ending our long wait apart as we can then apply by spousal sponsorship to get me a visa and then start our lives together properly. I would much appreciate if you could take 20 seconds out of your life to vote for her through facebook.
All you have to do is click this link
http://apps.facebook.com/bmwcanadacontest/video1.aspx
and then click 'like' under the video for KARYN. Thank you in advance for taking the time to read this and thank you even more if you vote.
It also should be known that she made everything in the video and filmed and edited herself in only 10 days alongside working 15 hour days 6 days a week, so this competiton is not won easily, she has worked really hard to get this far.

Re: A really quick favour please!
Why does she have to win a competition before you get married?

She doesn't HAVE to win in order for us to get married but it would sure make it easier. And you need all the luck you can get in this world.
