Honestly, I don't really post much on here but I kinda thought the forum was about the immigration process, the difficulties you go through sponsoring your spouse, asking questions regarding the process and seeking encouragement and support. These long posts frankfield ranting about your own personal problems that have nothing to do with spousal sponsorship are not very helpful in already very difficult process

I was here long before you and will be here long after you are gone.. I am an immigrant, guess I qualify to be here. My post are for those who find meaning in them.. even one.

Then I say you are quite shallow if you see no relevance... the personal is political.. Then again I welcome your free speech.

I like where you are going "In other words despite the terrible experience/abuse from the place I am still going to love it.. You cant deny it that there is some negative feeling about Jamaica by many here... a right you hold for I too have negative feeling about Canada. It is this fundamental right to defend ones country I celebrate. i dont think you should agree with me cause this is the land of your birth... but I can only hope my truth, my honesty is respected. I don't think you take it as an attack, at least I hope. The people make the country... the place, the land cannot be bad right.. so my question is if folks secretly fear this place, look down upon it shouldnt one be afraid to bring these people here? it is the people who make the country.. right. Hard to separate one from the other. The best years of my life was spent there..not a lie, your attachment to Canada is the same as mine to there. But as the world is an open field and I am an explorer I rest here in this moment...complain until I say enough.

Sometimes I defend Canada when others compare it to US, it is an innate thing to do, though when I think about it, there is really little difference between the two places. Do you see how Africans.. leaving Ruwanda, Somalia and other such places, cleave to these war torn places.. and return even when they come here as Refugees.. Why is this so? The spirit of a person in locked into the place of their birth... You will never understand unless you examine your love and feelings for your own country. So all that I say must be seen as education, coming from an outsider... listen and learn. Until we see everyone who live here as someone who love his or her own country the world will continue to make enemies of those they host. In plain language, never assume the person from another place love you more than himself. This is why countries embrace folks from countries they destroy believing these guys are grateful.. only to later on find out it is not so. My husband has asked me many times why the hell did you bring me here? When he first got here he worked in a recycling plant..working in filth and his co-worker says he blends in with the environment so she could not see him.. wow, this is home.
But he works hard and plan his escape, always loved home, in 5 years of being apart has never asked me did you hear from immigration...pushed me to call my mp, terrorized me about the process. Every set back was taken with a grain of salt and when I asked him why he took things so cool he said I am at home why would I cry about being in another mans country.

HAHAHA it is the government that makes the country not the people!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

To certain extent this is true, really true... When the government of Jamaica borrows IMF money they can't/don't plan to repay, the ppl behaviour will eventually become questionable.. Thanks to the Jamaican mamas who know how to stretch out the dollar, lay the foundation for their sons to provide love to women a yard and abroad.

I do believe this forum is to speak regarding anything you wish. I can remember last year at this time we used to have talks and debates about everything from sex (Anada) to sound clashes (ready and halfmoon). Sometimes it is good to rewind and talk about other things then this immigration process because I know from experience that it can get really depressing sometimes and a break from the norm sometimes helps! Picture days were fun too!

(this is my opinion and my opinion alone! )

I like and agree with your opinion. I like hearing about other things than immigration. It helps to pass the time and ward off thoughts that my application may never be approved!!! I enjoy picture day and talks about food and all that!

Just an update for those who are curious... Notes recieved late today and as expected, no movement at all.

I'm a bit torn about what to do since I've invested almost 10 months in this process and feel like I have nothing left to keep me going...

I appreciate that many of you have been waiting longer so I apologize if I come across as insensitive.

Also... for the record, I really enjoy the upbeat and supportive nature of most forum members... thank you for keeping me going this long... I find it disheatening that others use this forum as a place to voice personal grievances and political opnions. Its a shame that people bully others with their words and call them "shallow" among other things for disagreeing. I know that by even posting this I am opening myself up for a hateful reply.. but as I've said before, just because you can say something, doesnt mean that you should and if enough people ask you to refrain from posting offensive or hurtful things it stands to reason that maybe you should consider the usefulness of your contributions...

On a more relevant note, Praying that each of us gets good news...we all deserve it.

I do enjoy talking about other things that are positive and uplifting, crazy rants not really my thing. I hope everyone hear some positive news soon and I pray 2014 is a great year for everyone. Chickie or Kadi you can take me off the list thanks
