well brasi - I am a writer of lists so you can be sure that as I learn I share and it looks like it'll be only 6 months a year till I can get permanent resident status - I'm sure I'll be waiting awhile before I hear back all the details from the govt.

Thanx Seveen - that was a huge help. Full steam ahead. About as quick as a tugboat

@ brasi - so all my travellin' friends have asked for the same thing you have - so I'm taking everything everyone gives me and posting it legibly on my site. it's a catchall for all the webstuff I do and it's new so everything's not there yet. work in progress. jacadian.com

You can apply to stay through the work permit exception (Spousal Waiver):

You can also apply for citizenship - here is a Gleaner article explaining the procedure:
