Really? for which PR prog is co-op counted?

 

[sharjeel91]

have at least one year of full-time (or equivalent) skilled work experience in Canada within the last three years before you apply (academic internships, co-op placements and part-time work during your studies do not count),

OK sorry for this,, thanks for correction ,, would be better if u don't do sarcasm ,, lol

I was not being sarcastic. I was just asking you a question.

I was giving you the benefit of doubt that maybe there is some program that counts co-op experience which I am not aware of.

The connotation of "Really?" Is sarcastic,, well sometimes we can't do anything about people,,

All right, I tired to tell you nicely that i was not being sarcastic but you seem to be insistent that I was. Well, if your narrow mind has already decided thats what it was, what can I do about it? Nothing? And, I dont care to do anything about it.

Stop crying like a little baby. If you are so sensitive to people's queries, maybe, you should research properly before posting absolute nonsense. or at least read your post properly before hitting the "post" button. And, it has been identified by you that you were giving false information - so, why behave like a spoilt 5 year old now?

Continuous co-op work experience for 1 year or more used to count towards PR before, not anymore.
