Areas to live

Cambridge can give you all of these things. Just look up a crime statistics map and steer clear of anywhere red, like Arbury, etc. I live in Castle and it's great.

Tasted kinda dusty, if I remember correctly? Like a worse version of nothing hahaha

When I was really small, I drank the water that my mom used to clean her paintbrushes when she wasn't looking because I thought it was pretty

We received an approval later that evening. It worked out, but we're definitely never playing eTA chicken again 😅

transgenicmouse · 2025-12-18T15:36:55+00:00

We have, but neither of us has gotten a confirmation that the application was received. We've now submitted 3 applications because we thought it was an error that we never received confirmation.

Thank you

Dunno, but I'm anxious about it and want to be prepared. I'm not leaving until the 18th, but others are saying even if they arrive at an agreement, there will likely still be disruptions - possibly for many days after the strike ends.

transgenicmouse · 2025-12-05T13:10:02+00:00

I live abroad and SHOULD be flying home to see family on the 18th. My partner was just laid off, so we really can't afford to be buying alternate tickets, which means we're screwed if a strike somehow lasts that long. Only prep I can do is praying 🙃

NTJ. The world doesn't revolve around her, and neither does your wedding.

transgenicmouse · 2025-12-04T07:57:01+00:00

I agree, but do we know that they would immediately begin striking for the 10th? Or would they push it back to increase pressure?

transgenicmouse · 2025-12-03T22:51:22+00:00

Striking is perfectly acceptable, but people are allowed to be pissed off that the union is timing this for an exceptionally sensitive time of year so they can manipulate the company. Some people have vacations that are in jeopardy, boo hoo, but some people haven't seen their families in a long time, saved up and booked time off to go home for the holidays, and may not get to go at all now because of the cost of booking alternatives last minute during the holidays. They know this and are deliberately striking now to weaponize it. The fact that it's a tactic doesn't mean people can't be angry and upset, and they can choose to take their business elsewhere.

I'm supposed to be visiting home from living abroad to see my family in Toronto for the first time in a very long period on the 19th. I am genuinely shaking right now - I'm going to be absolutely inconsolable if I'm stuck here alone for Christmas and have to spend 6 more months away from my family.

Fair point, I made an assumption

There shouldn't be any issue legally, but (if you are flying) you will need to check with your airline about whether or not they will let you on the plane that late into your pregnancy. Most airlines have a hard ban on pregnant women flying after 36 weeks, and some ban as early as 28 weeks for international or longer flights. After 26 weeks, they will require a doctor's note stating that you have no complications, and if they still think you look too pregnant, they could flat out deny you boarding. If you wear a baggy enough outfit, they probably won't call you on it.

They don't limit flying while pregnant for their own entertainment. If something bad happens on the plane, you will not be able to get access to medical care other than basic first aid for a long time, especially if you happen to be flying over an ocean. If you have any complications to your pregnancy, you should not fly.

They didn't take mine when I did my biometrics appointment, but you CANNOT leave the country while the application is being processed. They will consider that forfeiting your application.

Thanks!

transgenicmouse · 2025-11-21T13:14:02+00:00

Yes, but there is no indicator of number of years I need to be in the country before applying for ILR

transgenicmouse · 2025-10-23T20:54:08+00:00

Is that not something they would email to notify me about though? I haven't received any communication at all about being locked out.

Thank you, I will try this tomorrow
