USA also have a similar card ( Green card ), I don't know if they have to cut it also during their citizenship day... But I was talking about a national identification card intended for citizens, not for permanent residents or even temporary. The license and the health card are diverted from...

The concepts of guarantor and references are really from another age, archaic... The reason for these requirements is the absence of a federal national identity document which would have allowed the identification of the person at the passport office. , and therefore the issuance of the passport...

I am writing an e-mail for my federal deputy (who is also a minister, in the current government)... Even being already a citizen, I will find the words to denounce this situation and complain, with courtesy. I strongly encourage you to do so. We are in a democratic country, and where...

Friends, I think it's time for each of us to do our part and act in a civic way: Write to your federal deputy to put pressure on and oblige the political parties (of the government, or of the opposition) to push for a quick resolution of the situation, that is to say, a special law to oblige the...

This is great news if confirmed. I am satisfied as a Canadian taxpayer. Better still, it would be to force them to return to work by a special law. Let's hope this happens quickly. It is the duty of the Treasury Board and the government to protect public funds. Blackmail should not be a way...

Hopefully, it's the reasonable thing to do. Unfortunately the NDP will not support this for ideological considerations, it could unfortunately undermine the Liberal-NDP alliance in the near future and bring down the minority government, and thus favor the rise of the Poilievre's...

I'm already a Canadian citizen, and I'm still ''inconvenienced'' by this strike as well. It is inadmissible, whether we are a citizen or not yet... Because it is about our money, that of our taxes, public money. Lost for lost, and to the point of the gravity of things, I hope that the...

Not so much since Brexit: British citizens no longer have free access (Freedom of movement AND establishment anywhere in the Schengen area)... Instead of boasting and making fun of people who suffer real consequences from these repeated and unjustified delays, due to the laziness and pettiness...

It's all of our money, taxpayers' money. The government, and especially the Treasury Board, have duty to protect public money, de jure. ( by law ). Public service workers are above all the servants of the citizens, they are our employees, paid with our money: You have to see it from this point...

I hear the news constantly. There is pressure from the Sudanese lobby in Ontario asking for a special program to bring their family... If things get complicated in Sudan, it could happen like what happened for Ukraine, Afghanistan, Hong Kong and other areas of tension in the world... In short...

Of course, with a strong passport like yours, your ceremony could even be postponed for 10 years, it will not affect you... But not everyone has your luck: People with passports more '' exotics'' suffer from this situation, and are not able, for example, to join suffering or dying family...

With the risks of pandemics, strikes, and the lazy and profiteering character of some people (for example: the abuse of the use of the vacancy code 699), certain measures should be imagined. There is no sympathy to be had for people who misuse the public money earned by honest workers, or who...

Unfortunately, life experience shows that you are quite an optimist, dear friend. '' Bis repetita '': The same thing that happened with the covid period, coupled with the misuse of the vacancy code 699 by federal employees (A leave that allows them to be paid at full rate at nothing do, renews...

The situation reported by one of the participants of this thread is simply UNACCEPTABLE. We must, I think, learn from civilized and protesting peoples who always claim their rights, and above all to be treated with dignity, like the French people I cited as an example. It is a deeply cultural...

Cic agents are not to be pitied, and they are not '' white as snow '' (I translated the proverb word by word from French, I don't know if it is said in English? ...It does that mean they have nothing to reproach themselves with?), there have been precedents or cases of systemic discriminatory...

You dont need to talk with anyone in CIC... Just ask directly for a citizenship certificate directly in the Canadian embassy on which the child depends. You are within your rights, you are not asking for alms, but a right. Pay no attention to a racist or ignorant (or poorly trained) agent...
