This is what I find despicable about the whole immigration "debate". Someone like you should be welcomed with open arms and minimal hassle. Instead, you get every roadblock possible along the way. Now, perhaps that wouldn't be so disheartening, because you only appreciate it that much more when you finally get it, well, except for when you see crap like this...
“Canada will welcome you,” Trudeau invites refugees as Trump bans them .. (translation: let's just invite and welcome in the worst of the worst with open arms, those who want to replace our culture with theirs, and spit in the face of immigrants who work hard and desire to be a part of our community and our culture)
Sorry for the mini rant, beautiful painting too by the way!
Dear Alex @alexpmorris. Thank you for your kind message, it cheered me up! Things happen for a reason, and the system never works in a logical or "welcoming" way. It's an automated system with little human input at this point. Nevertheless I will not be victim of it. I will either pass or move on, but I will not feel defeated. Some other place will welcome me with open arms :) You know, lots of people worldwide appreciate my work so I am extremely grateful for that. This minor challenge should not discourage me. After all, my mission is for humanity, so it should not be that big of a problem so deliver it from somewhere else, if it comes to that. And yeah, Mr. Trudeau...you know politicians brother :) Thanks again and much love to you!
I'm glad at least my response cheered you up a bit. Hold your head high, and keep up the good fight! :)
