Re: Temp Work Permit - Company Bought Out

I just came on here to ask that question as a couple of lawyers I spoke to today said that as long as it's there before your expiry date, that's good enough.

Re: Temp Work Permit - Company Bought Out

Ah ok, so it was just down to your own personal circumstances. I just wanted to understand it in case it was something I needed to be aware of as well.

Re: Toronto - Car Seat/Travel Cot Shopping

Nah, just meant I won't be replying to one specific person as it'd be pointless.

Re: Toronto - Car Seat/Travel Cot Shopping

Thanks Iain.

It seems there's some confusion about what a 'travel cot' actually is - it must be a British phrase. It's basically a cot/crib that folds up and fits into a neat little bag making it...
