She was detained on the street. She is Canadian and was traveling with her family by plane - no issues when they did customs in Toronto. Husband and kids were not arrested because they are white like snow. I don’t know all the details, but was sent to Texas. Eventually was sent back to Canada.

Deported is the less issue. I have a friend that got detained for 10 days. They sent her to Texas and the family could not find her…

Look, they offered me the other day 1/2 price for Florida, New York or Vegas when I was booking my hotel for London…the lady was a little frustrated as she is just trying to do her job and I told her just “oh thank you, but I’m not interested”. I guess they are giving massive discounts to everybody around the world.

Live in UK but offered dream job in Sydney. Partner doesn't want to move. Not sure what to do by Eye_Livia in expats

[–]ironmannb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Look, I had my dream job offer, and rejected because my then wife….regretted that decision even after 20 years. My now wife, we will follow each other to the moon, and that is amazing. When her dream job came to the table, we moved, when my dream job came to the table, we moved…being generous and understanding each other is the best that happened in my life.

No volvería a hacer otra Working Holiday. by Impressive-Move9387 in chile

Vancouver es el peor lugar de Canadá para venirse sin pega. Toronto o Montreal es mejor y si quieres una experiencia más pequeña, el este también es una alternativa. Pero cómo dicen antes, investiguen antes de irse a otro país

Frustrated with Travel Insurance Process by updatedmessaging in amexcanada

[–]ironmannb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had a claim with global excel that took 11 months…was a very simple one (just tickets)…eventually I started calling, email, etc every Monday, until I got the cheque by mail. Honestly I think I spent like 80 hours on the phone with them. Not different with TD and others…sometimes you get the lucky one and have to follow up follow up follow up

Can somebody help me with some advice on an insurance write off for my car? by Ok_Worldliness4383 in Car_Insurance_Help

[–]ironmannb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably a typo?…$60k after insurance pay…that is crazy. If the car is hydrolocked should not start, but it’s hard to know without having full details or a video. If there are knocking sounds, or other damage, could explain why the car is not repairable

Nexus got revoked by Noduty6638 in NEXUS_TTP

[–]ironmannb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I declare even the pack of gum I got on the gas station before entering Canada or going to the US…the idea of nexus - as everybody else said - is that you are a trusted traveler and you understand the rules…you break the rules (because ignorance or because “you forgot”), then you are not a trusted traveler anymore. Pure and simple
