    COPR is the most most most PRECIOUS document. You can replace a PR card easily, but you cannot replace a COPR document easily. Immigration officer at border told me it is more PRECIOUS than diamonds. Keep it in a locker or a safety deposit box! Its that precious.

    When you did the OHIP card registration, the address area matters, as the general physician belongs to that area... from what I know... for example, my friend lives in Brampton, but I plan to live in Mississauga, and I give the Brampton friend's address on OHIP card for priting and post...

    Sure....I landed at 5:30am in the morning and SIN booth at Toronto Pearson was open on 13th March 2020.... Yes, address proof of a friend or relative is an insane mandatory thing, as all cards are delivered by POST (old fashioned land post!) - that's so unreasonable for a rich nation like...
