Thank you for calling the CIC and sharing your findings with us. When I called, I was assured by a female, in french, that the date of implementation would be "le 19 juillet 2015" (19 July 2015). Other posters report having been told 19 July 2015, seemingly by francophonic representatives...

Destined, you are correct. NOLO CONTENDERE. It is not the subject of "silly questions" that I found untoward, but rather that of the "silly, incorrect responses", which seem to irresponsibly abound. I do not understand your statement that I lacked Mr. Cohen's authority to comment about him...

Dear CanV: Your advice is sound, if one is a breeder of rabbits. However, the topic is that of the solemn honour of procurement of Canadian citizenship, with its attendant legal and uncodified moral responsibilities, however mundane as they may seem to some. Some define citizenship as a...

No disrespect meant. If you would read my post without emotion, then you would discover that I never suggested as to where his baby should be born. That is the inalienable right of all Canadian parents. I merely opined that his post anecdotally supports the "intent to reside" requirement of...

To: nbs000 You stated: "We do not plan to have our baby delivered in Canada unless we really have to." [emphasis added] We have good news for you! You don't "really have to" have your baby delivered in Canada. You are at liberty to have your baby delivered in the Asian country for which...

And so, amigos y vecinos (Britain variant "vecinoUs"), so ends another chapter in the saga of C-24. Long gone are the days of those who came here, in order to share their anxieties, frustrations and accusations. No longer shall we revel in the splendour of comforting misinformation, with an...

Queridos amigotes: The topic of this chatroom regards information reasonably relative to C-24. It is NOT a forum for evaluations of Canadian politicians, absurd speculations as to motivations of politicians, the airing of personal grievances and psychological misgivings, etc. Participants...

To quote the brilliant American philosopher Groucho Marx- "Who are you going to believe, me or your own eyes?" 1. Who authored this alleged email from the BCCLA? 2. Assuming the veracity of said email, why would its alleged author be more knowledgeable as to the date of...

Dear Destined :D :D :D :D It is highly unlikely that a member of our Supreme Court should chance upon this humble blog room. Even in such event as he/she should, he/she would hardly be at liberty to express a preconception about C-24, especially at this early stage. Nor would his/her views be...

Dear Surgi: With reference to Suncor Energy. Should I purchase the SU140627C00041500 call option, or the SU140627P00040000 put option? I want a definite response, not one based in theory! Oh, yes, do you do horoscopes? People, kindly forgive any semblance of sarcasm on my part, but this...

I hope that my sarcastic attempts to humour adherence to the topic C-24 has not been misunderstood as with bad faith motivation. Of the several serious, conscientious contributors to this forum, three come to mind: Marcus, sicko, Empiral Scientist, et al. It is to them, and others that I...

I intend to apply for Canadian citizenship prior to 19 July 2015. As a part-time astronaut, if I spend some time on Earth's moon, prior to application, is there some type of lunar exemption, whereby each day on the moon would count for at least 1/4 day toward residency in Canada, if I plant a...

Amen to Anon1,2,3. I would like to add that the topic of this chatroom is Bill C-24, the effects and date of its eventual implementation, observations, and anecdotal information, relative thereto. I wish to express gratitude for the invaluable guidance offered by some of the knowledgeable...

So, ladies and laddie- Will Mike_045 cancel his vacation? Will he apply on 15 January 2015, 15 June 2015, or ..........? Will he sign his pre-date or post-date his application? Will he have amassed 1,095 or 1,096, or 1,102 days presence in Canada? Will he marry his childhood sweetheart...

I am an ex-pat from the U.S., retired lawyer of over 30 years distinguished legal practise, permanent resident in Canada, having accumulated more than 730 days physical presence in Canada, within the 5 year period immediately preceding the filing of my PR renewal request. I have re-established...

It is clear that full-time, compensated work for an authorised Canadian company, outside of Canada, would count toward the 730 day rule, in order to preserve permanent residency status. However, would non-compensated, full time volunteer work, for various Canadian public interest entities...
