No offense to you other Canadians here, but your immigration laws blow. I tried to get landed immigrant status, with my mom already being a landed immigrant, and my stepdad being a citizen, and being sponsored by them. We thought it would be a breeze. But nope. They sure didn't seem to mind taking my money for applying. Of course if I had floated ashore on an inner tube I would have been given work, food, money, and shelter. Gimme a break... When did Canada become so tight with people immigrating?!? You beaurocrats there at the consolate can take your thumb and your Canadian peso and stuff it up your maple leaf piehole...
Resentfully yours,
