With respect to the bolded, issoftandmoist is a lady and you are a man. Of course any lady would rise her defense mechanism when been approached by a smiling man.
However, if a black man approach a black lady in a place where no other black lives, things may be different.
Nevertheless, some black who live among white people see the presence of other black people as a competition. How ridiculous! That could be the type of black softandmoist is complaining about.

maternal:


Some companies may look to hire, keep, or promote their token black employee, but there are 2 black employees including yourself. That other "black brother" will do everything in their power to belittle you and your work, to make sure you get sacked or don't get that promotion. A black police officer will go to a black neighborhood and harass the citizens there, even more than his fellow white officers, in order to get a promotion and become a Sergeant. These are small examples.

hi guys I need some help and advise.
I have gotten ticket for Toronto early next year.
I got the ticket via wakanow.

Now for some reasons I have decided not to settle in Ontario but Alberta, how should I handle my travelling now ?

Should I land in Toronto, do my documentation and after head to Alberta ?
Would there be any consequences to this ?

If I am to cancel my tickets with wakanow, would they oblige ?

please advise me, mind you I dont have any money to throw around o. Every single kobo counts.

I wish exchanging was possible. Mine is the opposite. I have ticket to Edmonton but now I'm going to toronto. Late dec and I booked with travelstart. They charged me extra 500k to reroute or 250k to refund. I just told them to leave it as is pls while I think further. All these travel agencies sha...

This is not me whining or anything. Just something I noticed since landing here in Canada and going out and about.
Many of our Nigerian brothers act all cold when you greet them then get warm when greeted by a white.
Really.
Like your sucking up will change your complexion?
The friendly ones know better, I suppose. They give you pointers on how you can get settled in easily and integrate.
One man snubbed me this morning when I greeted him twice at my daughter's school, but got all chatty with one woman who was white�. His daughter and mine are in the same class so I was wondering what the superiority complex was all about.
Shior.
What pained me most for him was that the woman didn't hear anything he was saying because even on the verge of swallowing his tongue to speak Canadian English, she wasn't just understanding. Kikikikiki.
Ok, seriously now.

Please seniors, let's be nice to ourselves. Tenkiu.

Yaayyy!!! congrats to you. Wishing you easy prepping, and yes!!! All will be well by God's grace.

Hey all, quick follow up, hope those that got the shipping guy's number from me were able to reach out to him?

So people carried this 'Coup' mentality across the ocean. To what end please? Thank you Maternal for this insight. Guess we have to keep our cards to our chest and be eagle eyed always.

Nigerians that is our way.....my joy is that with time, we shall all learn.
Much respect for the indians in that regard.
There is obviously something about ''black man''.

Here is another one with POOR in caps. So your 'math skill' should add it too.

Its true you have been surviving with your flawed English skills but you shouldn't live your life on chance like someone playing Russian roulette. Just one misstep without this vital comprehension skill can ruin your life and threaten your existence. How will you comprehend job interview questions?

Moreover, how can you learn and comprehend French when English that is your first learned language is still a problem to you?

Man up and enrol for that English comprehension class.

@salford1 please can I pm you ? I have some personal questions

Will the airline allow your wife to fly? I'm assuming she's 7 months gone and might be more when COPR lands. Niobe77 was in a similar situation when PPR landed but wrote to CIC informing them about the situation, she was asked to notify them within 30 days of the baby's birth though she didn't intend to birth in the US.
You can mail them to let them know that you may not be able to land till after your baby's birth. Better still look through her posts but
MAKE SURE YOUR BABY HAS A STATUS IN CANADA BEFORE YOU LAND

Dear All,

Well, my wife travelled 34 weeks and delivered the baby in Canada, she got her Alberta Health card immediately she landed and both mother and child are fine. As a matter of fact, mother has gotten her PR card

Anyone travelling to Toronto on the 25th November via Egypt air from Lagos? Oya, hit me

9jaincanada:


No it will not, as long as you have your COPR documentation. we were in a similar situation travelling from Lagos. Here is a link you might find useful for clarifiying this: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/helpcentre/answer.asp?qnum=1116&top=16

Thanks. I was able to call them from Nigeria with Fongo (Canadian number) - you also need strong internet service to receive and make calls on Fongo. My wait time was about 30 minutes. The agent said she couldn't see our resubmitted photos in the file, that it may be because they only received in on Oct 1st. That i should call back in about one or two weeks time, that it may have been updated at that time.
