To annoy you 
It looks more like you are scraping around to find stuff that fits your narrative.

With Trudeau fucking up momentously, I can assure you there is never too much. 
But did enjoy the festive tinge of this one. If we can celebrate ancient Yuletide traditions, then whatās 10 years? 
Redmonton? Yes, for sure. Definitely not Calgary.
This is really interesting. I wonder what Asian country she is from. The article no longer mentions she is Asian but a previous picture caption did (which I am sure was changed by CBC editors afterwards lolāyou can still see the old picture caption when doing google searches).
Love her aliasesāCharrybelle Baldesancho
Police on Vancouver Island say a woman has been charged with forgery and impersonation after she allegedly applied for a nursing job with fake documents.
Charrybelle Talaue, 34, also faces a charge of failing to comply with the conditions of an undertaking, according to a release from the Central Saanich Police Service.
Talaue is accused of a forged marriage certificate, Alberta health card, Canadian citizenship certificate and a name change affidavit, and of fraudulently impersonating someone by the name of Yves Anglehart, according to a police press release.
Investigators say they were contacted by staff at Island Health when Talaue applied for a nursing position using suspicious documents.
Talaue is not and has never been registered as a nurse. In October, she was the subject of a public advisory from the B.C. College of Nurses and Midwives, which warned that she may be posing as a nurse to get work in hospitals.
Police say they believe Talaue has applied for and worked in other health-care jobs in B.C. and Alberta under a number of aliases, which include Charrybelle Perez Talaue, Charrybelle Talaue Baldesancho, Belle Talaue, Belle Marie, Charrybelle Baldesancho, Charie Talaue, Yves Anglehart, Belle Yves Talaue Anglehart and Yves Belle Anglehart.

Hereās another West Coast weirdo for you.
She argued that she was appearing in court as āa living, breathing, alive woman,ā not a lawyer, and said she would refer to herself using a lowercase āi.ā
Okaaaaaaaay 
All the more reason to preserve taiwans freedom and āoldā style ways of commerce.
People donāt miss it til itās goneā¦
A new deal with Taiwan has reportedly been signed.
From this article:
The office has yet to disclose the full text of the FIPA, which it previously said comprises over 70 articles and appendices.
If this is such an awesome agreement, why not make the details public?

āLost Canadiansā win court case
Iāve always hated this rule (particularly since my kids were born in Taiwan), so Iām glad to see it might change.

Probably a AIP or agreement in principle that still needs to be legally scrubbed, etc. Also such arrangements need to be translated into French, English, Mandarin etc.
If you look at Canadian websites, they do always eventually release the text. There are just well thought-out procedures for doing so.
So by making a big deal of having a big announcement now, before the details are scrubbed, do you think that the Canadian side implicitly wanted to give the DPP a boost here, as this accouncement is just before the election?

Ahhh that rule was yet another Harper initiative wasnāt it? That guy . . .
Guy
No. Canada has so many FIPAs, as they do with all other sorts of other arrangements such as Social Security Coordination arrangements. They sometimes take a while to negotiate. For example, many of the free trade arrangements commenced by Harper were finalized by Trudeau.
Despite the partisanship by politicos, the bureaucrats often just do their jobs and proceed. Definitely not a political push on this in my opinion. Took a while and not political.

My kids are Canadians born in Taiwan; I donāt see any reason their children born in Taiwan without any connection to Canada should have Canadian citizenship.
So that is your right (or your kidsā rights) not to apply. This development is not forcing you to do anything, really.
Whatās being challenged is the blanket attempt instituted by Harper to deny this right across the board.

Doubt it. The eager beaver that announces early tips their hand and looks like the desperate one 
bad strategy if things are all fully settled in ink in my opinion. But no idea on this one.
I 100% disagree. I agree with the choice not to, but not as a law. I find it disgusting for canada to do this type of thing. The few times I talked with our embassy here, they said it will be changed soon blah blah. Still waiting lol. Been years. They were embarrassed as well.

But what if they do have a connection to Canada?
Right now, my kids live in Canada but if they decide to move back to Taiwan for a few years after they get older and end up having a child there, the childās not a Canadian citizen.
And then you get into the problem of defining āconnectionā. Even before we moved, I felt my kids had a good connection to Canada. They visited Canada every year for at least a month (sometimes longer) and talked to their Canadian relatives every week.
I also think there are not enough generations in the law (if that makes sense). Itās basically one generation away. I can see if its three or four generations away and none of those generations have any connection to Canada.
