Yeh we are not that far apart in our opinions, the whole world is going to hell.

Having spent a some years flying all over the African continent and seen the terrible waste of people and natural wealth, it really makes me feel good to go to places like France and England and see them reaping the results of what they sowed, so to speak.

Canada is not far behind.

WOW!! What a great discussion and all started by a simple question!! nicely done....

Another immigration question. I have seen that is very easy for a canadian pilot to find a job in US(now is hard for everybody....talking about good old time). What about an US pilot to find a flying job in Canada? I see you guys have more openings than us per now. What are the legal procedures to get a job in Canada?....and how much likehood for a canadian company to hire an american pilot?

company

A tad far from BC. But in Oshawa(outskirts of toronto). cheap rent and cheap planes.

As for all the slander flying left right and center.

Canada - Yes, haven for many people. Mafia, terrorists etc.

US - No better, LOL @ Enron and other Scams.

People want globalization or someone wanted it, so now the world can go to "hell" as you all stated it.

Finally, does it matter if the person has a visa or not, hijack a plane and crash somewhere, not much skill any airline will do for the terrorist. LOL and now we pay 25$ per flight in Canada 'cause some moron wants to "add" security. Same security as before, same results gov't gets rich. LOL only MORONS are the politicians in the Canadian Government, no wonder 1/2 our provinces want to seperate.

cheers

A funny thing happened at Detriot a few months ago, whilst attemping to gain access to the U.S.A. my wife, who quite often butts in when I am speaking, ( don't all wifes? ) butted in when I was speaking to the Immigration chap, she made quite a stupid error, assuming you want in! although in perfect innocence. I said to the chap " Is it o.k. if the parrot gets a visa as well" He asked if I had a parrot in my case, I said " no, she standing right here- look" He compleatly missed the joke, and after another id95 fiasco (we were trying to get to yyz) my wife also failed to see the funny side. next thing we were ushered into the side room, whilst they looked into the all the circumstances.
Whilst we were sitting there. Two Pakistani gents were asked up to the counter, they were smartly dressed, with pilots cases. That is what drew my attention to them.
The guy behind the counter said " So, let's get this straight, you want to enter the U.S.A. so you can go to XXX and buy a 737 aircraft for 1 million dollars, and then, fly it back to Pakistan. Is that right? " to which one of the gents said yes

See if you can guess what happened next!







:D

through?
 

You were detained another 24 hrs while your friends next to you were passed through?

Thanks for the story. =)

Close! We got in ok, only to find our "buddies" slink out of the Airport. Off to get their pre-owned airliner no doupt, funny world at times :D

Funny, all this talk about immigration policies. I do not think Canada has a bad one, sure, you will get a few bad ones in, but as far as the policy goes, it is pretty good. Here in the U.K. we just let almost anybody in, well, if you were just a normal, non religious fanatic, non criminal sort of a chap, then you would have no chance really, at least the Canadians are trying to attract decent people! The British seem to seek out the euro-thugs, and we allow radicals to demonstate in our capital city--with police protection.
Chuck, if you think you have landed in the wrong country, when you arrive in LHR then you have obviously never been to Birmingham U.K. BHX. as you would think you had landed much further east- in fact, when you walk out after immigration, well I better not say any more, but it is a shameful display of the british immigration policy, and don't expect to hear any english spoken. Hold your nose and barge through!!! or better still, get back out to the A/C gas up, and get the hell out of there!!!!

Happy Christmas to all, and seasons greetings

What we must do is insist that " ALL " the politicians and bureaucrats that force these immigration policies on us " must " live in the ghettos that the human vermin they allow into our countries make in our cities.

That should at least level the playing field somewhat. :D :D

What think thee, about that idea Gearup??
