Re: Are many of you under the weather?

They should change it to, "don't come into work if you're feeling under the weather because of a bacterial, viral or protist-induced illness".

Re: Gay Mosque

So it is possible to be LGBT and Muslim at the same time. I didn't know that. I guess there might actually be some credibility to that whole story about Obama being a gay Muslim after all.

Re: For England or for you?

Same here. Not only am I unpatriotic but I also give a big, vocal f-u to my little stain on the map of a country. None of its accomplishments nor mistakes are my own so I don't have to feel proud nor...

Re: For England or for you?

No worries. I see where the topic shifted to Game of Thrones via Sean Bean/ Alec Trevelyan/ Janus. Actually, I find this to be a much more interesting thread than one about patriotism. You can...

Re: For England or for you?

Well I wouldn't drop Trevelyan since I'd prefer to see him stand trial and possibly have a chance of being rehabilitated. There was a helicopter flying right near them and he could have been saved if...

Re: For England or for you?

In other words, how patriotic are you about your country and how does this patriotism affect your everyday actions?

Re: Films with no sequels that really should...

I'd like to see a sequel to Fight Club. I wonder how project Mayhem will continue now that Tyler is gone. Not only that but the Edward Norton character would have to stand trial for manufacturing...

Re: LMIA Processing Time?!

I was right about my numbers. So there are 74% fewer applications at Service Canada.

Temporary foreign worker applications drop 74% since new reforms - Politics - CBC News...

For England or for you?

Why England or why you?

Goldeneye - "For England James?..... No....... for me" (1080p - HD) - YouTube

Given that I'm not from the UK, my answer is, "for me". If "England" was substituted with...

Re: LMIA Processing Time?!

Yup, Service Canada is telling the truth. They can add names to LMOs over the phone as of September 11, 2014.

Re: Flying from US airports.

Oh yeah, I remember it once cost me like $65 to get from the BC Ferries Tsawassen terminal to the airport. Based on google maps, I'd estimate that $30 - $40 is what it would cost to get there from...

Re: LMIA Processing Time?!

I just called Service Canada again this morning and it seems like they just changed their system again, only this time for the better. I honestly don't know if I can trust what these ESDC officials...

Re: Flying from US airports.

Oh, I forgot that you lived in Squamish and had to drive to YVR. In that case, you really are taking the cheaper option by driving down to SeaTac. Well thanks for pointing out another downside to...

Where will you park your car for the duration of your trip? Is this parking free?

Re: LMIA Processing Time?!

It's an LMO under the old system. I've wondered that same thing too and so has my employer. Apparently that's not the case though according to the same ESDC staff who we have both been talking to....

Re: Avg rent in town climbs 35%

Why not just move to Vancouver if the rents in Squamish are becoming unaffordable and on par with Vancouver's? There are so much more conveniences to living in the city. That's unless of course you...

Re: LMIA Processing Time?!

I know that regular LMOs/LMIAs take months to get, but name additions to pre-approved ones only take 2 - 3 weeks according to them. I've been waiting 3 times longer than that now. I'm baffled by why...

Re: Declining gasoline prices in Canada?

Yes, they're trickling down in that guy's case. It doesn't mean that they're trickling down all over Canada. You're right about the prices being jacked up though.

Re: Declining gasoline prices in Canada?

The savings on crude are definitely trickling down in your case. It's a 6% decline over one week, but Brent crude prices have decreased by 6% over the past 4 weeks. Maybe the stations wait until the...

Re: Declining gasoline prices in Canada?

I forgot that gasoline in Canada was expensive. Can you remember how much that same gas would have cost 4 - 8 weeks ago if you bought from that same location? The price of Brent crude has dropped by...

Darn, why can't see these things south of the 40th parallel north (in the northern hemisphere)? Well it's possible, but then that would just create a massive electromagnetic pulse that would fry all...

Re: LMIA Processing Time?!

Maybe they spend half the day in their offices playing computer games, chatting on facebook and watching videos on killsometime.com just like some government officials down in the US do. All Service...
