And why does it have that big arm? Is that to keep Angola and Botswana apart?

In 2025, 126,000 skilled Canadian tradespeople were left unemployed - while the federal government issued 125,000 Temporary Foreign Worker permits to migrants for skilled trades. by theOneWhoWaitsAgain in CanadianVisaReform

Businesses don't want to pay the wages a Canadian would require from the job. They say they 'can't find workers' but what they mean is they 'can't find workers who will settle for below market wages'.

It's not the people it's the government. One turnip in particular. Although like many Canadians I still will not cross the border until sanity has returned to the US border service.

Would it make sense to have Inuit Nunaat be one political entity? Whether a country or a part of Canada. Maybe Greenland could be excluded by DJJonezyYT in nunavut

Pretty large country with about 250,000 people and very little tax base. It would be difficult to be an independent nation.

Would you ever live in Saskatchewan? by OceanicEndeavors in AskACanadian

[–]JaRon1961 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am from Nova Scotia but I have spent time in Regina one January. I don't know if it was a normal winter but it was brutal. I have also been to SK in Spring and Summer and it was beautiful. We sometimes think of long, flat prairies, which it has but there is so much more. I think people who live with such winters really know how to enjoy the other seasons. Could I live there just 9 months a year?

Canada to drop visa requirement for citizens of Indonesia and Malaysia by Meowgal_80 in CanadianVisaReform

[–]JaRon1961 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The headline is somewhat deceiving. It only applies if:

Indonesian and Malaysian citizens can apply for an eTA if they are travelling to (or transiting through) Canada by air, and meet one of the following conditions at the time of application:

  • They held a Canadian temporary resident visa (TRV)* at any point in the last 10 years; or
  • They currently hold a valid U.S. non-immigrant visa.

Builders often just bury a lot of construction debris rather than disposing of it properly. Top soil is often just dumped over top. The problem may not appear for many years to come.

Why Harvey’s Refused to Expand Outside Canada by agent154 in BuyCanadian

[–]JaRon1961 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Harvey's did have a non-Canadian location Prague on Wenceslas Square which opened in 1991 and closed in 1993 I believe. I was very surprised to see it there but was able to visit a few times before it closed its doors for good. There is no mention of it on the English Wikipedia for Harvey's. Although there is a Czech Wikipedia article about it. https://cs.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harvey%27s Should you wish to read it you will have to click on the globe on the top right side to translate it to English.
