Hi Everyone!!!!
First of all, I wish to congratulate everyone who have gotten updates towards our common quest; I thank God for you all.
Now to my landing story, which I must say was not much different from what our forerunners have recounted in the past. I landed on the 31st of August, on a warm Saturday evening at the Toronto, int'l airport. The normal immigration proceeding for newcomers took off immediately (the underlying warmth of every official I encountered was striking). Everyone wanted to say " welcome to Canada". They were so courteous, that I almost couldn't take it anymore. Well, coming from a place where courtesy of public officials wasn't a strong point, who can blame me? And I must add the one at the airport was no fluke; I experienced the same level of service at the service Canada office when I went to apply for SIN and so on.
Well anyway, coming in on a weekend meant that I had to wait till Monday to go apply for those things, but then, Monday ended up being a public holiday (Labor day) . So SIN, banking et al had to wait till the next day. But all that is done now.
Btw guys, I was almost caught. The funds I took was a little bit below the minimum allowable (by about 1.5k) and I had the misfortune of getting a personnel who started counting it :-X .
I come dey fire prayer on top him head and suddenly he stopped counting half way and okayed me :-\
Can you guys beat that?
So counting is possible at any time t.
I sincerely pray for speed in all your processing my people. Make una do come and also experience your dreams.
Cheers everyone
