Moving to Canada!!

Post by egosheep »

I just received some great news tonight... my application for permanent residency in Canada has been approved! :D :shock: Official timelines say to expect to wait 10 months or more, whereas this was just under three. They also said there would be no need for an interview, which is a huge relief. So sometime before Christmas I will be moving to Toronto. It will be a big change, but as a kid who always wished for snow days and school closings(and never got any), it's something I'm excited about. Now I just need to make sure my 330 has time to adjust to the cold before I take it out of it's case... :wink:
Great Ramp In My Opinion.

Congrats! You and Brian Morton can host a SNOWCON now! :D
There is no reason to ever be bored.

...why yes, I suppose I do have a double bound guitar fetish...

You think? :shock:

Good luck in the GREAT WHITE NORTH, Thomas! 8)

Buy all the Ricks you want before going up there and save all those UPS brokerage fees, taxes, duties, etc. :wink:

Welcome to TO! It's nowhere near as cold as those guys are suggesting ... I only get to use the dog sled maybe 3-4 months of the year.

Seriously, its a good city and I think you'll like it here.

Good day eh? Congrats and welcome! I think CJ sees more snow and deeper cold than Toronto, but coming from Atlanta you'll want to pack a sweater or two. :D

Got that right, Brian! I never knew that the US border patrol would cut into my airbags!! :shock: :roll:

Thanks for the well wishes, guys. As far as I know, there is in fact internet access in Canada as well... so I won't be a stranger. :wink:
