Re: Another Passport Question

Hi Jules,

Re: Canada Mobile/Cellular Phones

You don't mention where you're going to be, and suppliers vary from province to province.

I've had no problems with Fido in BC, and with the Couples plan, you can add up to 3 more people to the...

Re: Taking four dogs with us to BC

Only if you're getting the UK Pet Passport. You don't need the tests for bringing them into Canada. For four dogs, that might save you a bit of money (unless the tests are included in the cost of the...

Re: What to do?

Hi Adam,

I started looking on Monster, Workopolis, the usual places, and I wasn't really finding anything. Sure there were things there I could've applied for, but nothing was really appealing.

Bearing in mind the long processing times for SW visas the world over, I wouldn't have thought that issuing the refunds is going to be at the top of their list of priorities. ;)
