Guys, end of the road for me on this thread. Finally become a beloved Canadian citizen today in a ceremony at Scarborough. The presiding Citizenship Judge gave a very rousing speech, got me super emotional. So proud to be part of this great country. This country chose me, and I chose it back. Love you Canada, I stand on guard for thee!
Congratulations my friend. :)

Wow, today marks the day a lot of us sent in our applications! I hope the people that haven't received their oath date get it soon. Time grinds terribly slow when you're not having fun (waiting, waiting, waiting).

Amazing. 242 wow, that's a lot. I thought mine (~114) was a lot. I guess still lots of backlog.

Well, plus me so a total of 243.
Can't wait to apply for passport - they said to do it on Monday.
(I guess we wait until ECAS shows COMPLETE).
Yeah, they always say 2 business days. But I've found out from people on here, it's whenever ECAS says complete. For me it was next morning, not two business days.
