You are right,no more hotel bookings.
My landing experience was just the best ever,I was even wondering what was going on,got off the plane and headed to the security area,then I was directed on what to do,filled out a form on a particular machine which required my details and had to scan my pass on the machine and at the end a form came out,then I headed to a CBS officer with the form,from there I was directed to the immigration office where I was confirmed as a permanent residence(congratulations you are now a permanent residence of Canada,your PR card will be mailed to you in 4weeks time)in my mind I was like just like that :) he canceled the visa on my passport which was already useless anyway cuz it’s just one every visa,and he said if I leave Canada without my PR card I will have to apply for another visa to be able to come into Canada,in my mind I was don’t even go there am not going back to UAR, and after that I walked my way to where I did my COVID test,that was pretty fast,then I was on my way out of the airport.
my bags was not even checked(well I was certain it has been scanned for checks already)no serious personal security check at all I just know it was God working for me.
And I give him all the glory.
