you should ride on the yellow taxi, the white one is non-metered.

At several posts around the world, Canada's political, trade and immigration officers will not be reporting to work until further notice. This includes some of Canada's largest and most important embassies and high commissions overseas. :eek: (THE MAIN IMMIGRATION OFFICE IN MANILA IS CLOSED INDEFINITELY) 8) and other Affected Canadian offices abroad include: London, Paris, Tokyo, Tel Aviv, Ramallah, Dublin, Hong Kong, and Canada's delegation to the European Union.

All Foreign Service immigration officers in Beijing, Shanghai, Delhi and Chandigarh have also walked off the job, which will severely reduce the pace and volume of visa and immigration processing for applicants from China and India.
OH MY GOD,,,,DOES THIS MEAN MY APPLICATION WILL CONTINUE AT THE SAME SPEED

I would be pissed. These are all avoidable. Closing VO's and not negotiating collective bargaining in good faith is an intentional act by the government. Has anyone seen their taxes go down lately? Not me.
No kidding, not to mention all the people that will have to pay for remed or new police certificates etc... Just thinking about it pisses me off

I definitely won't be buying an air ticket soon, I will wait until my wife has the visa in hand.

Well the plane has landed... Was about 25 mins late. So they are probably headed back to the ferry
