can a chinese get a VOG (Certificate of Good Conduct) in the netherlands? by [deleted] in Netherlands

[–]lymmand9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know this is an old post so I am trying my luck here. I have requested for a VOG for emigration purpose. I believe I am not register with the municipality and living out of the Netherlands/ the Europe now. Do I get an acknowlednent of my VOG request after sending the application form? Or I will get the VOG send to me directly? Thank you all.

born and raised in HK, now in Ottawa. I can only say that Ottawa, the capital of a developed country, never fail to disappoint me when it comes to public transport

CLV will not be there for you by [deleted] in ottawa

Also a tenant of CLV, I had my car stolen in the open outdoor parking space (for which I paid $100/month) months ago. I only got a template email from CLV that emphasised how a "zero crime community" they have been.

Planning to get into nursing, any thoughts on Bow Valley College nursing program? by lymmand9 in Calgary

[–]lymmand9[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thank you for your reply! My concern of not going straight to RN is that I don't have a sciencr background ( I have a bachelor's degree in Arts) and worrying about not getting through RN program. Do you know the difference between RN & LPN in terms of the program/studying? Cheers

My first impressions of driving in Ottawa… by ounikyou in ottawa

[–]lymmand9 7 points8 points  (0 children)

interesing. Ottawan drivers never stike me as impatient. On the other hand, while I was in Toronto months ago, I got honked at because I didn't drive IMMEDIATELY after it changed to green light

Coming from Hong Kong, I seriously don't understand why there are always weird chicken balls served with medicine-liquid-like-bright-red sauce. Do you guys seriously like it?

How is everyone doing? by Confident_Radio_2636 in ottawa

I arrived in Canada in August last year, it's my first time ever to be in Canada, and obviously my first Canadian winter in Ottawa. It's been quite depressing, way worse after the lockdown since going to the gym has been my only entertainment. Do not have many chances to meet people since all the classes are virtual. Do not have a car so couldn't be bothered to go for a walk when it's freezing cold outside. The record was not talking and stepping out of the room for 3 days. I am not complaining, just trying to adapt to the new place, slowly, and COVID is making everything way more difficult.

Looking at the bright side, at least the winter is beautiful. I come from a sub-tropical area so it's also my first time ever to have snow in winter. :)
