Are we allowed to bring large bags for docs during the interview?

Can we bring large bags for docs for the interview/test day? Like a large back pack or a large suite case?

Why would you not be allowed to bring a large bag?

Why would you bring in a large back or a suitcase? This seems crazy?

With such a very large bag, it might be a little hard for you to get through security screening :D (if there is one, as I've never been to an interview/test site.)

Don’t you think they might get suspicious and think something is wrong find a locker or something to leave your bag or suitcase in.Are you coming from the airport or flying out?

What country do you guys all think we're all trying to become citizens of? This is so un-Canadian it's laughable.

The reason is that I was thinking to have most of a potential RQ docs handy in case I see the officer is going through the passport stamps and has questions (I have had many travels).

Your passport is more than enough i would say to see the stamps on it. And if you have other supporting documents to show then have a file with everything marked.

Large bag? Seriously?

Bring anything that you consider useful. Size of bag does not matter.

I don't know other peoples circumstances but I have 270+ work related absences from Canada in my capacity as a truck driver and the only way I can back most of them up is to show my drivers log book, which is one page per day, times that by 365 and then again by 5 and suddenly thats five very full ring binders that you certainly wouldn't be putting in to any envelope.
I don't know if they'd actually want to see my log books, but at the same time I'd hate to be sat there and asked to prove my absences or presence and not have my log books with me to do so so in that respect, I may be that person who wants to take a large bag along.
