Re: immigration question

If you think you can start a successful business, that may be the way to go. Let your wife keep the profits, so she can get off welfare and then she'd be able to sponsor you for PR. Her sponsoring...

Re: Canada landing situation changed

Re: Parents Coming to Canada

Re: Random Question - kids and sports

I think your wife is right, and you are worrying about a non-problem. If your son is not even 7 yet, he can easily pick up any sport available. He probably likes the British sports best because...
