    VAC wait times

    I can so appreciate the overworked and underpaid.  The front line has a tough tough job.  (no I don't work for VAC, but a customer service workplace) Imagine how easily it could be turned around if they adopted under promise, over deliver. Change the timelines to what you can meet and...

    I would suggest searching canlii for specific cases regarding this. Also, http://www.ottawadivorce.com/ has a fantastic forum full of information. At some point you have to complete the asset/liability information and it will have to be disclosed.  Possibly exempt but you can't hide the info.

    Common Law Marriage in the Canadian Forces - Mega Thread

    SYR Refugees to Canada (split fm SYR refugees thread)

    I suggested as much when the topic was brought up in more local news groups.  General consensus is the City needs to focus on their homeless and the poverty issues before this occurs.  Yes, the First nations and ownership will also be a concern moving forward but this is a temporary thing which...
