Re: can I re enter Canada as a permanent resident with Michigan license plates on my car?

Re: Property crash is finally here in UK

Canada from 1995 and then the US from 2003.

Re: Property crash is finally here in UK

True indeed.

That said, "the point" of these forums (in fact "the only point" of these forums) is for conversation between expats now living abroad, former expats or soon to be expats planning on...

Re: Education better or worse?

Re: Decided not to go

No it does not disqualify you from having an opinion.
