Continui discutia imigratiei in contextul canadian descriind si regurgitand cateva din luarile de pozitie ale ministrului imigratiei cat si cateva din particularitatile sociatatii si sistemului canadian.

I continue with my answer to a friend, started in asa.zamo.ca/immigrate2canada.

I suspect there is a 'TestVote' application for each member country of the EU. I decided to follow my own recommendation from Romanian MEP elections in Toronto and go through this, just before voting. Since there is very likely an English one in existence, and the English vote has already concluded, this article has the questions left in original, in Romanian.

Daca ai obiceiul sa ma citesti, iti amintesti poate de articolul in care descriam situatiile de mita din imigratie, ca raspuns la interviul cu o prietena unde ea imi spunea ca nu exista spaga in Canada. Ei bine, judecatorul cu pricina a fost gasit vinovat de "tradarea increderii" si "luare de mita".

Oare cum ajung britanicii sa-si inchida usile imigratiei? Ce pazeste Soros?

In interviul precedent am discutat cu prietena mea cum vede ea coruptia canadiana. Ea - nu, eu da.

I continue to struggle to express my frustrations with the status quo while also presenting the election results. Here I'll start with the facts, hoping that the rest will transpire effortlessly.

When friends ask me about immigrating to Canada, my first answer is always DON’T!. However, though I’ve already written about this in the past, I have yet do so in English, so I’ll do so here, especially since yesterday I answered another reader.

The results of the latest PISA testing have come out. Will I manage to write about the educational styles in Canada (which is 4th, tied with Finland, after Singapore, Japan and Estonia) and Romania (48th out of 70)?

O recenta discutie de 55 minute pe TVO, televiziunea publica din Ontario, este un bun prilej de a considera ce-nsemna sa fii canadian si ce inseamna cetatenia dubla dual citizenship.

The stuff I haven't told you yet about Anaughtia (see previous and still unfinished, at this time, article) is on my mind, fighting its way into a sequel. But it will be a while. There are other stories for other blogs that also searching for a way out of my head. Until then, a somewhat easier subject, on Sweden.

I have previously echoed on this blog news about Romanians in the #diaspora. This time, we’re discovering the story of a girl born in an #Austrian refugee camp to a Romanian mother and an (absent) Italian father, who was reborn in an aboriginal village.

Using recent examples of discrimination against Romanian [most likely] Gypsies, I am arguing that Europe should give Gypsies the same cross-border roaming rights North America has given its First Nations.

Whenever I talk to Romanians who want to come to Canada and I answer questions, I always end up being a bit upset. I find that people ask me too many simple questions they could answer themselves with Google and too few of the “important” questions. Maybe there’s a guru hiding inside of me, and here’s where I set him free.

My reservations notwithstanding, I suspect most of the people who voted for Iohannis do not really know who he is, apart from the fact that he is not Ponta. I'm trying to bring a bit more color and background to his wooden personality.

I’ve two heavy things on my mind right now, and unlike WhatsApp frustrations, I don't think I'll be able to balance them with some happier, care-free thoughts. The second part of the title was inspired by a comment left by Blegoo about a year ago.

…si nu toti cei de pe asistenta sociala sunt milogi. Dupa ce am relatat ca IHT s-a uitat la o familie de romani din Spania (stirea 4 din 10), iata ca si NYT, simbolul presei libere ucigatoare de copaci, descrie cazul unui cuplu de romani in varsta care au preferat sa faca foame decat s-ajunga pe welfare. Este greu de zis daca o duc sau nu mai bine in New York decat oriunde altundeva in Romania.

I should’ve written “Guten Abend” instead of “buna seara”, but I don’t mean to torture my readers more than necessary. I’ve recently learned about Ion Caramitru’s prodigal son Andrei having returned from Switzerland (bmr-icstory), much like the older Ion Ratiu, to give Romanians Nestle candies in exchange for votes.

Never have I hesitated to make my views on Romanian immigration known. I think that most people leaving the country for good are better off living in Ro (though European tourism needs to expand, especially among college students, who also have Erasmus to take advantage of). That is why I’m conflicted about “Maria’s Manifesto”, a rather incongruent and emotional appeal to “patriotism”.

@Simona_Halep’s win is an amazing victory and an event we’ll be remembering and talking about at least until her next Grand Slam.  Sadly, it was only hours before all those hungry to for publicity started to throw shade, claim ownership and speculate it for their own nefarious ends.
