thank you for your response. The kids are American Citizens,not USA visa holders. Does that make it better?

I know they are US passport holders, I made a mistake stating US Visa holders, its still the same thing. Americans are not allowed indefinite stay in Canada, they will be treated as visitors on arrival. Unless they have permit to stay.

SO she needs to include them.

Please those who plan on travelling to and through Ethiopia via Ethiopia airlines are expected to declare the funds on them at Addis Ababa Bole International airport or risk having your money seized. I heard it on the radio this morning and I thought to share.

Imo, the easiest way of passing the road test is to take up brush up classes at a driving school. Some of these driving schools know the exact routes the examiner tests people on. In alberta, calgary to be specific, it cost around $45 to 50 an hour for brush up lessons. It might be cost saving to attend brush up lessons and pass the test once or twice than relying on experience from Nigeria and failing the test more than 3 times or more.

Please can you recommend any instructor in Calgary? Thank you.

Yes feel free buddy.

And honestly the feeling of some days being difficult will never go away. You'll just learn to embrace it lol so don't let that discourage you.

My expertise is back end and yeah I get your reservation towards front end. Although most times companies have a UX designer who creates the mock ups so all you have to do is follow their design and add the logic to make it work

The Module
The Introduction to Data Science module is delivered entirely online so students can earn their certificate without disrupting their lives.

Students who successfully complete Unit I earn a certificate and an invitation to enroll in Unit II. Those who successfully complete Unit II earn an overall certificate. Students have the opportunity to complete either unit of the module with honors.

Scientific Computing and Python for Data Science
In Unit I, students gain a comprehensive introduction to scientific computing, Python, and the related tools data scientists use to succeed in their work. Successful completion of Unit I is a required prerequisite for enrollment in Unit II.

Machine Learning and Statistical Analysis
In Unit II, students develop machine learning and statistical analysis skills through hands-on practice with open-ended investigations of real-world data. Students can expect to work with authentic public data sets from organizations like the NHS, or anonymized data on credit card defaults. This unit has a heavy emphasis on creative use of the tools of data science to solve problems from multiple perspectives.

The Requirements
This is a true introduction to data science and can accomodate beginners with the right amount of foundational knowledge. It does not require you to have any prior degrees.

Beat them in private and don't leave any proof like scars. Close your curtains to avoid witnesses as well.

Deny it. Tell them your pikin is vex because u gave them a time out at home. Then beat them even harder for telling their school when they get home. Again no evidence is the key. Careful of cell phones too.

Actually, you are allowed to hit a child, between the age of 2 and 12, in Canada as per section 43 of the criminal code. But, there are restrictions to the beating.


What is Section 43 of the Criminal Code?

Section 43, codified in 1892, is the law that allows parents, teachers and those standing in place of parents to use force to "correct" children as long as the force does not exceed what is "reasonable" under the circumstances

Among other things the Court restricted its use to children between the ages of 2 and 12, and stated it must be "transitory and trifling" must not involve objects such as rulers and belts, and may not be applied to the head

But the fact is ....

Most Canadians have never heard of section 43 of the Criminal Code

That's more like spanking. You need force that'll make the child think twice for next time.

1 year stock taking !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I clocked 1 year in Canada today like play like play o and it has been an interesting journey.

Met some Naija people in the course of my waka here and we had a small Christmas get together with my new Naija friends. It was a fun. Madam was elated at passing her first turkey baking challenge. Abeg, I am still looking for more Naija people in this neighborhood.

I am enjoying the job and the stuff I am learning. It's looking upward and cant complain. I feel the need for a part time job, so I started a travel website : http://budgetfaresnow.com/ for flights, hotels and shopping. Abeg make una help a brother. I also have a block of (4nos) 3 bedroom flat for sale in Ikorodu, Lagos. I am hoping to register a business soon in Canada and see how well it goes.

Conclusion:
1. Everybody's story is different
2. It might be important to start small to sort out the bills
3. Last last, everybody will be alright !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Congratulations on the progress made so far. It can only get better.

If you are planning to run a business, I would advise you incorporate federally as early as possible to benefit from taxation and corporate identity advantages available to corporates. Costs just about $215 and you are good to go.

It appears something is wrong with your site as it is not opening.

I just moved to Brampton too... lets hook up sometime soon.
