God bless my friend, till we meet again!

I wonder if anyone is remaining to get an ITA?

Quite the opposite actually.

Job market is doing well and actually, many businesses are closing because of lack of workers. Whats broken is that they are not selecting right kind of folks. The country needs more people who can build houses, harvest crops and nurse old people here. I guess NoC based rounds are aimed for that...

All I can say is... never say never. Sometimes back, in 2018 or so, I was having a conversation with folks here or elsewhere online. Everyone was rambling... The interest rates can never go to 5% and we are doing bank interest rate checks before mortgage so we will never see a housing...

They make all sorts of excuses regarding "customer safety" and shit like that. I mean think about it, morons at EGBC have trademarked the word "Engineer" and will not allow anyone to use the word "Engineer" in their job title without getting a nod from them and paying them protection money. If...

Thats another issue. The stupidly regulated labour market. But then, in many places like Vancouver, they just do not want to release government land --called crown property. And they do not want to increase density by allowing in-filling. And Canadians do not like pre-fabs. Its weird but...

Actually... yes and no. It might not take 6 months and they do not start the day you submit your app. There is a thread by @legalfalcon on background verification. Find it.

We, that is asians are high context societies. We define ourselves by our individual self, our families and clans and castes and religion and whatever is our context. We communicate implicitly by our context. Racism/clique-nature and closed nature will follow pretty naturally from there.

I think @navinball said it best. The best thing one can do is to get remote job on US salaries. And be a resident of Canada. Perhaps live somewhere near US border to visit there every now and then.

Oh Canada! They will get lots of doctors and will not let them practice. They have massive amount of land but they will not let people build homes.

Dunno man, in my culture marriage is prime and only path to getting laid.

Okay first thing first. 1. When did you both apply for PR? 2. At the time when you both applied, were you married, separated or divorced? 3. Were you aware of application? I think you MUST be because you have to sign few forms and supporting documents or declarations and biggest you have to...

There are comparable diseases : 1. I know folks with diabetes have not ticked it. Do confirm in medical threads though. So yeah, Dr. May be right. Do not tick it.

Its a Punjabi / Gujju thing. They will do anything their neighbour does. If neighbour is sending his kid to swimming, they will send the kid to swimming. Neighbour gets a Nokia N65? They will get Nokia N65. Neighbour gets 5-series, they will get 5-series. Neighbour builds one more storey, they...

Yeah I went to their hookup Meetups once. Old white lady plus weird folks. Pizza was good! Push comes to shove, I will remove E of my SDE in linkedin. It will just be SD. EGBC is not going to sit in the interview.

There is a simple way out... Use technologist in title. Or developer. Or simply Dev. No one in Software line gives two shits about titles. I had the title Managing Director when I worked in banking sector... I never managed nor directed anything. It was just a way to make sure bank pays me my...

Look, anyone who has EVER tried to raise capital in India knows how STUPIDLY hard it is to do it. North America, however is sloshing with capital. Literally. So yeah, if you want to setup a business, nowhere is better than north america. Expect perhaps for China but... you don't start business...

There is no definition of serious disease in this law. What is serious disease? Devil only knows and it can be challenged in court of law. You will have to look at its implications based on previous decisions. Ask some lawyer. BTW, if you select it as yes, you are going to get a PFL. Its not end...

Oh they come in both flavours, Punjabi and Gujju and more. There are these Khatris --I used to call them Khatroos-- who use Mehta surname. And they are of all ethnicities: Punjabi, Haryanvi, Gujrati and Rajasthani. And Gujjus are equal offenders too, so love them too!
