Re: Counselor qualifications to work in Canada

Sure. I studied Psychology /Psychobiology so the 'theories of jungian' ect are becoming too outdated. On it's own, counselling is theory based in the UK which doesn't go far enough. Hopefully in time...

Be wary of advice concerning online treatment. The reason it's becoming an issue as covid is lifted is because it's different from in person therapy. It will become the norm to have onlime training...

Re: Single mum looking to move with 3 children

Re: Single mum looking to move with 3 children

Re: Advice on citizenship by descent!

You're right, she quite 'probably' is.. Probably is because of how useless the law is surrounding the act at that time. Apologies, I'm moving out this wkend which is why I've directed to the website....

Re: Advice on citizenship by descent!

Claim on citizenship has depended on lineage. After 2009 that equaled out. The issues in previous acts still exist.

Re: Advice on citizenship by descent!

Before the 75 act descent via female lineage only happened if you were born out pf wedlock if you married a non Canadian. After 75, that still applied but a quirk they introduced meant those born to...

Re: Advice on citizenship by descent!
