1. Need the original cutting of the advertisement published in two English newspapers one in local newspaper, one in India both showing the date and the name of the newspaper advertised in. The advertisement should be 1 month old at the time of submission of the application.

You can Try The Brampton Times or The Bramptonian or Brampton Guardian
