what we experienced while entering canada is worse than everything we went through in russia :-(
looking forward to the free state of canada we arrived by plane in vancouver.
the proceder of entering is really arbitrary!
officers ask people why they wanna enter canada and what they will do there.

once we asked about the posibility for working there - therefore we posted some sentences on our website in which we only asked if sb knows sth about working in canada and may offer a job to us. noone answered. so we informed us and got information that we can enter as tourists, look for work and make the permit after getting a job. we never wanted to work illegal or do sth forbidden!

so we went to the immigration counter for tourists, thinking nothing worse...
after asking us some questions which we answered all, the female officer went to a pc, searched in internet, found our site and printed our posting from may 2006.
she told us we are criminal, treated us like this and we needed a ot of words to convince her giving us 6 weeks and not to send us back to japan.

so take a look to your website if you want to enter canada, write nothing that would make you trouble - do it after leaving this "free" country...

shit happens - we miss russia!!!
