    Leave Canada without PR card

    We're in the same situation with my boyfriend. We landed a few days back, and travelling in 1.5 months. We are from visa exempt countries, so I gather as long as the airline let us board to Canada with our passports like they would normally, I suppose it should be all right. CBSA can then...

    EE System is Down

    It's a relief to know there's more people experiencing the same. Hopefully the application will appear again, and appear complete. It would be a headache filling it out again from scratch.
