I know my question is very, very broad, but there is so much information out there I need to have some sort of an overview from some experts, so any help would be appreciated.

My situation is this: I am a British Citizen with a clean British passport, but I live in Spain. I am not a skilled worker, however I have a job I can do internationally from home, and the company that hires me is UK based (though I could be based out of their US office if this would help?!) I live with my brother and my father, both who are unfortunately out of work (the Spanish economy is horrifying). There is a potential opportunity for them to be (at least on paper) listed as employees for the same company as me, doing minimal work and earning a very minimal wage. Long term they would be looking for jobs in Canada, but until we all got sorted we could live together.

I have no family in Canada, though I know some people there. I assume I would have to qualify through their Provincial Nomination Program. I don’t know much about that, but I assume it’s mostly paperwork? Would I need to go in person?

Here’s my biggest forseeable problem: I have lived in New York for 13 years, but I was undocumented. I was not classed as an ‘illegal’, because I moved there on a valid visa with my parents, but we ‘overstayed’ whilst paperwork was being processed to claim our residency (under the foolish advice of criminal lawyers), and even though I was a minor when I entered, I left as an adult. All of my family left once we realized that we were chasing a carrot on a string. (The filing is still being managed, but it’s ironically probably less likely it will apply in our behalf as we’ve moved). We were not deported, we simply booked a ticket, boarded the plane, and left. No visa stamps or anything. From what I understand, you’ll need to show your ‘whereabouts’ for the past few years, and since that was only a couple of years ago:

I’m thinking that would be a problem? Or no?
What would immigrating to Canada cost in terms of legal fees? Paperwork fees?
Do I need a lawyer?
What about my family? What will they need? (We’re all British passport holders).
How long does the process take?

Any advice that you might have would be very helpful. I’d still prefer to live back in New York, as that’s where my family is, but I’ve been burned by a nearly 17 year process of trying to live there, and it’s still a question mark if I would still apply for the original category we filed under (as I have significantly aged out now… I’m 30 years old).

Sorry for the wordy question – thanks for your help!

I want to start to process of immigration to Canada, however I do not know if joining the “Ordre des technologues professionnels du Québec” (as shown here http://www.immq.gouv.qc.ca/publications/fr/professions-regies/Technologue.pdf in French only)is really necessary or optional for working as a Tech Support, service desk, system administrator, or network administrator?

If it is, can someone help me understand the requirements? It’s not very clear to me what I really need to join

Im 21 years old
Give me the details please

live in Canada, and among the aspect of the United States that I find very silly, there’s the 21-year-old drinking age and the ridiculous penalties for underage drinking. This is greatly undermining the opinion I have of the US.

In Canada, the drinking age is 19 in seven provinces and 18 in three. If someone is caught underage drinking, they are either handed a small fine or arrested and detained until the effect of alcohol is over, that’s all. Underage drinkers don’t lose their driver’s license and don’t get a criminal record that would haunt them for the rest of their life. Additionally, enforcement is much less strict, and police often don’t really care about underage drinking on private property.

I think that American policy of giving a criminal record to underage drinkers is unfair and exaggerated, as a criminal record permanently jeopardizes employment and emigration, and will get a person barred from entering Canada for 5 years. You want to visit Toronto, but four years ago you were caught drinking at the age of 20? Impossible, you’ll get arrested and deported at the border. The punishment doesn’t fit the “crime” at all.

In the state of New Mexico, it’s a FELONY to give alcohol to someone under 21, but only a MISDEMEANOR to drive drunk, even on the third offense. Any reasons for that?

Underage drinking and drunk driving are two entirely different things. I take drunk driving very seriously and I even think aggravated drunk driving (over .12) should be a felony.

Canada has a lower rate of car crashes and deaths and far less problems with alcohol use by young people.

What justifications do you Americans have for these criminal penalties for such a trivial “offense” as consuming alcohol under 21?
Just a little side note: unless you live in the state of Mississippi, people in the 18-20 age group are NOT “minors”. The age of majority is 18 (19 for Alabama and Nebraska). You have to say “person under 21”, “underage drinker” or “underager” as these people are NOT minors.
Sure Texas is one of the most lenient states relatively to under-21 drinking, I knew that alreay. However, Texas and Ohio are the only big states to allow parents to give alcohol to their children. In 20 states, including most of the large ones (California, New York, Florida, Michigan, Illinois, Arizona, North Carolina) it’s a criminal offense for a parent to serve any amount of alcohol to their children. Another oddity is in South Dakota, South Carolina and West Virginia, parents may serve alcohol to their children, but it’s still a criminal offense or the under-21 person to drink it.

My point is that any underage drinking related offense that does not involve driving should only be punished by civil penalties, not criminal ones.

I’m currently applying in their offer . Should I continue with this application? Please help me.

I cant live in North America anymore. I am sick of the way white people are being attacked in more ways than one. I am sick of interracial marriage and of the way the media encourages it. I am not a bigot. I dont hate other people, I simply love my own people too much to endure what is going on.

My question: Is there a country in Europe with very few minorities and ethnic groups? It has to be a country with strict emigration rules unlike Canada and Britain. I want to move to a White country where I can marry a White women and raise White children. Is there a country in Europe that is still determined to maintain its white identity?
Typical! I did not say anything agaist ethnic groups. I did not say they should be deported. All I want is to move to a country where I can live with MY PEOPLE. And for that I am called a Nazi. Its incredible how brainwashed people are today.

Its not only about raising a White family. Its also about living with the knowledge that my sons and daughter will also raise White families and so on. I want a country which can ensure the continuity of our people(at least within its borders).
To N word with attitude: That may not be a bad idea
Savannah, while you have made some valid points, I dont agree entirely with you. Yes there will always be a minority group. But there is a big difference between having minorities within the white community and having non white minorities. Multiracial diversity causes intermarriage and the dilution of ethnicities. To me, this is wrong
