    Bill C-6: Senate stage

    With that logic, C24 also represented the "will of the people". Wow, Canadians are pretty fickle, eh? Also, how dare the Liberals try to change a law that represents the "will of the people"!

    Bill C-6: Senate stage

    Out of curiosity, what makes you believe that C6 represents the "will of the people"? The last poll I read showed that the majority of Canadians actually supported C24.

    Asking Liberals to remove language test for citizenship applicants

    This is ridiculous. If you want to live in a country, let alone be a citizen, you should be able to communicate in one of the two national languages. This is Canada, and you chose to immigrate here.

    Bill C-6 and PM Trudeau

    Yup, those pesky amendments that say that Canadian citizens should speak at least one of the national languages! How dare they have such rules!

    Help! Waiting Period for OHIP??!?

    You move to Ontario and your OHIP is activated three months thereafter. If you leave Ontario before staying there an additional 2 months (out of the next 3), you are not eligible and can be charged for services used.

    Tax time: resident or non-resident for tax purposes

    I will try to find a link, but I am positive that residency for immigration purposes is not linked with residency for tax purposes. You could easily meet the residency requirements to retain your PR status even if you lived outside Canada (and were a tax non-resident) for three year straight.

    Bill C-6: Senate stage

    The Liberal's are sliding in popularity fast, and Trudeau's approval numbers have never been lower. It looks like amongst the massive deficits, new taxes, etc., Canadians are already missing Conservative policies!

    Bill C-6: Senate stage

    It's not the government's fault. Unfortunately, the media only covers those topics that are of interest to the general public. This bill doesn't seem to be.

    Help me: Indian parents need Visitor Medical Insurance.

    Bear in mind that the prices you were given were for 1 year of coverage. Most policies provide you with refunds of the unused amounts if your parents stay for less than 1 year and don't make any claims.

    Life without PR card and credit history

    1. Go to a bank branch and open the account there 2. Go to your local Service Ontario or equivalent (depending on your province) and ask them for a Govt. ID card. They will provide it to you and it works. 3. Go to a different bank. Scotia and CIBC definitely offer this service. 4. See number 2.

    Transportation from airport

    Take a taxi. With a child and lots of luggage, you don't want the stress of public transit. Taxis have flat fares to various parts of the city so you can get a good idea of what you will have to pay in advance.

    Should I settle in Canada? Is it worth it?

    He's supposedly in the U.S. but has enough time to continually post anti-Canada comments on a Canadian immigration forum.

    Factual Resident and Tax Treaty

    Sorry, I used incorrect terminology and have modified my original post. You are correct that a person can only be a resident in one country at a time. However, as stated in typical tax treaties, this doesn't mean that the person doesn't need to pay taxes in both jurisdictions. Specifically...

    Permanent Resident To Move To Canada With Non-PR Parents

    You should be aware that it will take you a minimum of 5 years to sponsor them, and there is no way that they will be able to continue to extend their visit visa for such an extended period of time.
