What is Parti Quebecois? When John Cabot first explored canada for the British,for what was he looking?
IF YOU CANT ANSWER ALL OF THESE, ANSWER THE ONE YOU KNOW WOULD HELP, Thanks

Read your textbook and do your own homework. Seriously, not that difficult.

How old do you have to be to get silicone breast implants in canada? I know for saline its 18 but I don’t know about silicone. Serious answers without judgement only, Please!

I hope its also 18, having a 15 year old or any child underage getting this type of surgery just to better there appearcnce doesn’t look right and they are at very high risk of getting complications. Sorry if this seems judgemental too you but seriously any one underage getting implants is just plain obscene and ridiculous. The only time someone should actually get this surgery done is if they had breast cancer this is an option for them to get a part of there body that was taken away from them medically, other than that stick with natural.

***Here comes the thumbs down, i can care less, i tell it how it is****

I am expecting a package from Canada Post. I tracked it and it was marked as "out for delivery" at 9:15 this morning and it still says the same and it is 4:10. It has not been delivered. I really need the package!
How late does canada Post deliver parcels during the week?
What happens if the driver did not have time to deliver it today? Can you pick it up at a post office tonight?

Thanks

10pts for best answer!

Hi I Got,
The post office have regular open hours, but at the end of tour for the postman if there are any parcels they he brings back with him a notification should have been left to inform the customer as to the reason and they could go pick up the item the next day or request it be redelivered. The post office is in the business of delivering each days post, but it may take more time in this season than normal because of the volume of post and mail. If you didn’t receive your post at all or a notice about it. Call your local post office give them your address and tell them you were expecting a package and the information in tracking it stated it was "out for delivery" though you never got it. I hope it wasn’t dropped at the wrong address. Good luck!

I have applied for canada PR in India which is been approved. They have asked for my passport for visa stamping. How long do the canadian high Commission keeps the passport for stamping the visa?

it takes very long.

now a days i am in india and exporting auto parts all over world in the future planning i want to set a new business in canada for children .

What business you and your kids will succeed at will depend on what they are good at and want to do. Then you have to make a very intelligent and well-informed decision based on marketplace realities, competition, etc. This is probably not the right place to get your answer.

Some of my friends and me are throwing a suprise party for one of our friends who is moving over to Canada for a year after Christmas. What are some novelty canada items we can buy and give to her as like a joke present? Obviously we will be giving her good gifts as well this is just for fun lol.
Thanks!

Greetings from Canada, Fida

I am an international student who is about to join a university in canada. How long is it going to take and what are the steps required?

Becoming a Canadian citizen: Who can apply

To be eligible to become a canadian citizen, you must meet the requirements in all of the following areas:

Age
Permanent resident status
Time lived in Canada
Language abilities
Criminal history (prohibitions)
Knowledge of Canada
Age

You must be at least 18 years old to apply for Canadian citizenship.

Permanent resident status

To become a Canadian citizen, you must have permanent resident status in Canada, and that status must not be in doubt. This means you must not be the subject of an immigration investigation, an immigration inquiry or a removal order (an order from Canadian officials to leave Canada).

Time lived in Canada

To become Canadian citizens, adults must have lived in Canada for at least three years (1,095 days) in the past four years before applying. Children do not need to meet this requirement.

You may be able to count time you spent in canada before you became a permanent resident if that time falls within the four-year period.

Use the citizenship calculator to find out if you have lived in Canada long enough to apply for citizenship.

Language abilities

Canada has two official languages—English and French. You need to be able to speak one of these two languages well enough to communicate with people. In other words, you must know enough English or French to understand other people and for them to understand you.

Criminal history (prohibitions)

You cannot become a citizen if you:

have been convicted of an indictable (criminal) offence or an offence under the Citizenship Act in the three years before you apply
are currently charged with an indictable offence or an offence under the Citizenship Act
are in prison, on parole or on probation
are under a removal order (have been ordered by Canadian officials to leave Canada)
are under investigation for, are charged with, or have been convicted of a war crime or a crime against humanity or
have had your Canadian citizenship taken away in the past five years.
If you are on probation or are charged with an offence and are awaiting trial, you should wait until after the probation has ended or the trial is over to apply for citizenship.

What is the Psychobilly Scene Like in Newfoundland, canada?
I’m planning on moving to Newfoundland and would like to know about the psychobilly/ rockabilly/ punk scene there.

Thanks.

In Newfoundland? Maybe a bit in St. John’s, but likely nowhere else. I would be willing to bet people in other places would have no idea of what you were talking about! I have never heard the word "psychobilly" before. Rockabilly and punk are two things people would find difficult to understand being put together.

I was born in Canada, but I ve heard from friends and classmates that immigration Canada discriminates. For example, someone coming from Nigeria would usually have a much harder time coming here than someone from China. Im just curious to hear people’s experiences or their opinions on this.

YES !

As somebody here that claims to be from canada, they admire fidel kastro. Even say that a certain pierrot trudeau was a very close friend of fidel. Therefore, they don’t look with sympathy when a Cuban tries to obtain a visa for canada

I study Medicine in Tabriz azad University/Iran and I want to continue my education in canada. Which University is the most suitable one for me?

Canadian universities don’t vary much. You will get the same quality of education no matter which university you decide to go to.

I have to say that it’s even hard for a Canadian citizen to get accepted into med school in Canada. Getting into med school in Canada isn’t easy and even a lot of Canadians end up leaving to do their studies abroad.

You can study in any undergraduate course in any canadian university that accepts you, you just pay higher tuition as an international student. An international student doing an undergrad and an MD in Canada, you’re looking at about 500K over the course of 8 years. Also, it’s risky, because even if you get an A+ average and a 99th percentile MCAT with amazing ECs, you are by no means GUARANTEED a spot in med school. Assuming you have a high GPA during undergraduate studies and you have the complete package of good MCAT, ECs, volunteering, it is more difficult to get into med school in Canada as an international student, most schools have a restricted no.

You say you are studying medicine in Iran. As to me, you’d better finish your studies in Iran. First of all, to apply to a med school here you need to have an accomplished undegrad degree even if it is an MD degree . Any (and I mean it - ANY) undergrad degree will be considered only as a base to apply for MD studies in North Am.
Second, as an international undergrad you won’t have any advantage or possibility to transfer credites or ways to transfer between universities because of the differences between these two countries’ educational systems - forget it. For international applicants it IS very competitive.

And last, after you get your MD, only then you could apply either to med school or for Canadian board licencing exams and try to pass it with a very high grade and at first attempt. After doing this you will have a chance to apply for residency in Canada. Thus, you could become a Canada licenced IMG.

In case you prefer the first way, ie taking MCAT and applying to med school with an accomplished MD degree from Iran - it’s also possible since your MD is undegrad degree. Your Master degree won’t affect your chances singnificantly, sorry, But I would seriously suggest becoming a Canadian resident before applying.

Good Luck!
