You need to follow the other thread for that.
Qorax ( Captain Dutta ) would update on it.
You can PM Qorax for more info.

Unless we are out of station traveling, We are looking at joining the meeting on 14th as we are a part of the group already. You are welcome to join us.
Not sure of the 21st though as this would be the first meet for this group.
 
Hi anushauc....I would love to join in on the 14th but I am away this weekend!! :( For those meeting on the 14th do you know if this is intended to become a (somewhat) regular meeting? Monthly perhaps?

Its somewhat a monthly meeting... Irrespective of that we keep in touch through the google groups...
To join the group you must be physically available in a meeting...
Look at the Dubai2Canada blog and the other blog mentioned...
We will see if we can come to the other meet on 21st.. not sure of now..
 
Saturday is fast approaching!! PM me if you can make it out for coffee this weekend and I will send you my number so we can be sure to connect in Union Station!!
 
Hi there, I've had a few people PM me so far. If you are still hoping to meet up please let me know and I can send you my number so we can find everyone and talk some immigration! (Especially vent our frustrations in person...:P)
 
Sorry everybody. I'm not going to be able to make it tonight. :(Allison
 
Sorry most people were not able to make it and it had to be cancelled. I'm usually in the Toronto area once or twice a month on weekends, so hopefully we will find a date in the future when a few of us can get together. It would be great to meet some of you.
 
I agree.. I'm sorry I bailed but a friend of the family died suddenly and the funeral services were at a conflicting time. I really want to meet you guys and I hope you don't think I'm flake! :(

Hey BeShoo, please let us know when you will be in Toronto next and hopefully we can work with that date. I live here and am sure I can clear up some time in my schedule if I'm in town (away for Labour Day weekend though!).
 
Does anyone know of a group that gathers closer to London, ON?
I would love to meet some others that are going through/have gone through this process.
If anyone knows or is interested please let me know ;D

I'm not sure if there is still a group wanting to meet downtown at some point, but my problem is that I often don't know very far in advance when I will be in the area. I knew for sure that I was going to be there Labour Day weekend, but of course that wouldn't have worked out with you, so I didn't even mention that. I'm hoping to visit again sometime between now and (Canadian) Thanksgiving but all I know so far is that it won't be this weekend (which is half over anyway). We will have to see what will be.
 
This is a great Idea..does anyone know if there are any gatherings for people in Hamilton Ontario, Toronto is a bit far for me?
