My Dear Nicole...
I had no idea that message of mine would bring that kind of reaction from you and offend you. Its only when a dear friend informed me to check it out and now I completely understand why you may have got so upset.
Firstly -
the word Samaritan- I have just learned that the word has more than one meaning. I only knew the meaning which is usually used in current English -
a charitable or helpful person (oxford dictionary). I thought that the way you offered your help to Rshellym, you were purely trying to help him get his GCMS - and that was awesome! Everyone appreciates that including the person who gave you +1. So i'm not sure how i failed to respect you???
I now realize there is that other meaning of that word and believe me i had no idea of those. So my apologies if you misunderstood me and got offended because of those other meanings of the word.
Regarding the ATIP (gcms) request on behalf of others: It was obvious from your and Rshellym's message that you were not sure about how to order gcms on behalf of other person who is not in Canada.
So i thought to clarify that (myself trying to be a samaritan now) for yourself, Rshellym and anyone who is reading and want to help someone in that situation.
Not sure if i should apologize for that one.
And once again
here's the link if anyone is trying to order gcms on behalf of someone who is not in Canada - here's CIC's way to do it...and i hope no body gets offended this time.
