Thank You !!!

Glad you were there to hear the Gentlemen speak (wasn't he a General ?). Honestly, I wanted to be "done with it" so I could avoid the afternoon rush back to Kanata. Then I started to listen to him and OMG, it was all goosebumps !! (Planing on writing to IRCC to see if I can get the transcript of...

Ottawan here too... Hmm...I had my test yesterday (morning) and OMG, there were at least 75 folks who took the test with me. So don't worry, it's coming slow but it's a oil tanker !!

Go through the Guide and pay special attention to the Pictures. I did my test yesterday and 4 questions (that's 20% !) were based on the Pictures. Good Luck !!!
