A regular Thursday evening for a family living in north Edmonton quickly turned to terror as the Edmonton Police Service tactical team banged in their door. Alberta RCMP said officers believed there could be a victim held a gunpoint — but it turned out to be a false allegation. The frightening mistake happened Thursday, Nov. 2 around 5:20 p.m. at a home near 148th Avenue and 75A Street in the Kilkenny neighbourhood, and was captured on security camera video. The family didn’t know why there was an EPS tactical vehicle with ram rod knocking in their front door. At the same time, police stormed the home’s back door and three screaming teenagers were taken outside, where they were told to lay face down on the ground.

Make my life difficult for nearly a decade, I'll make you look like an idiot.
When I first left home to go to university, my parents co-signed a mortgage for me on an apartment style condominium in a small Canadian city. This was 20 years ago, so it came in at a whopping $52,000. They thought that this was a much better and economical choice than trying to find an apartment and deal with landlords. I loved the idea and moved into my new home.
The building was almost entirely populated by the 65+ crowd. It was small and only had 24 units split into 2 halves. I had a basement condo. It was a nice place, nothing fancy, but amazing for a student. I was young (19) but I was quiet, kept to myself and didn't do the whole party thing.
I got along with most of my neighbors, I'd help them out moving heavy things or carrying groceries upstairs. I was acutely aware of the age gap and the general image of a university student, so I made sure to be just an all around great guy to avoid conflict.
The one person I could never see eye to eye with was my upstairs neighbor. For a 70 year old woman that couldn't have weighed more than 100lbs, she walked like a damned elephant. She'd have gospel music on her TV at max volume at 5am on Sundays, she'd make remarks about "that damn kid" whenever something was left out of place. She even went so far as to accusing me of breaking into her car and making a police statement saying she saw me do it. Unfortunately for her, I was out of the country on an internship at the time, but still she persisted being a pain in my ass. I'd tried to approach her about the TV issue, and her response was to make sure that it was no longer just Sunday. After a couple of years of attempted diplomacy, it was clear that nothing I did would make things better.
Others in the building probably knew she had it out for me, but why would this adorable little old lady try to lie and get me thrown out of the building by the condo board? (She tried at least 11 times while I lived there).
7 years into my time living there, I was at my job with an Ambulance service just north of the city. I got called to a shooting. Guy shot his neighbor in a land dispute. The neighbor survived, but there was of course going to be a police investigation. The investigating officers called me to get a statement and offered to just come over to do it, rather than have me travel. One of them was a constable I'd worked with quite a bit, so I said sure. We set a time for about an hour after I'd get home from work.
I was just getting out of the shower when they buzzed to get into the building, I said "come in, I'll be out in a second". I hit the door buzzer and quickly grabbed some pants and a shirt. I heard them come in, and then walk upstairs. As I'm trying to throw on clothes, I hear them knock....on my upstairs neighbors door. They introduce themselves as being from RCMP Major Crimes division and that they were looking for me...balls. She says "oh, he lives downstairs, what do you want with him?". They thanked her and informed her that they couldn't say, as it was an active investigation. My heart sank....but then I had a thought.
It only took about 15 minutes to do my statement and they went on their way. And then the fun began. I knew the rumour mill would be starting. She would tell everyone that would listen that Major Crimes was looking for me and that I must be some sort of criminal. I decided to see where this went. Pretty soon I'm getting side eye in the hallway, neighbors are steering clear of me, so I know she's been talking. Turns out I've been arrested for robbery and kidnapping and must be out on bail according to her.
I found this out when one of my neighbors who was on the condo board showed up with a letter demanding an explanation and threats to have me kicked out. I asked him what this was all about, and he said "Well, Linda (not her name) sent us a letter about what had happened and we had to have an emergency board meeting because people don't feel safe with you here". I said that per the by-laws of the condo board, before any action could be taken, I could request a meeting to review and provide a defense. Linda was on the board, so I know she'd be there. They set a date for a week from then, but I was given a caution that it didn't look good for me and that I would have to do a lot of explaining.
The meeting day comes. Linda is sitting smugly looking at me, the other board members are giving me dirty looks. The board president asks what I have to say in my defence. I stand and quietly distribute a letter on RCMP letterhead, signed by the regional superintendent that says"Mr. Zenmedic is not under suspicion of any crimes, past or current and has not been arrested, detained or questioned as a suspect in any criminal matter. His duties as a Paramedic will often require him to make statements in regards to ongoing investigations, and in this instance on (date), investigators had gone to obtain a statement about an ongoing investigation for which he was professionally involved. At no time did the members discuss, disclose or in any way indicate that he had any involvement in any wrongdoings. I am deeply saddened by the necessity of this letter and we will be reopening an investigation into a previous incident regarding false statements made against him".
You could tell when people read and understood it. The dirty looks shifted from me to Linda. She exclaimed that it must be a forgery, she witnessed me being led off in handcuffs. She pleaded that they should believe her. It didn't help her. I stood and addressed the board and outlined the years of abuse and harassment, including the false accusation of break and enter to a vehicle. I informed the board that on advice of my lawyer that I do not discuss the matter further with any member of the board, as Linda being part of it and using her position for the purposes of harassment opened the board as a whole to litigation and I was still weighing my options.
The next day I had a knock on my door. The board president had informed me that Linda was removed from the board and that she was given warning about her conduct and that any further harassment could result in proceedings to have her removed from the building.
She also had a visit from police with a summons for providing a false statement and obstructing a peace officer. She had to attend court. She pled guilty to both and was given a suspended sentence and 1 year condition not to harass, threaten or intentionally inconvenience me in any way. If she abided her conditions, she would receive an absolute discharge (meaning it would be removed from her record, like it never happened).
I moved to another province before her year was up, but for a brief period of time, I actually got to sleep in on Sunday mornings.

An Alberta RCMP officer has been charged with sexually assaulting two males in an Airdrie hotel room in 2022.
Leduc Const. Bridget Morla faces two counts of sexual assault. Morla was off-duty at the time of the alleged assaults, according to the Alberta Serious Incident Response Team (ASIRT).
ASIRT announced the charges Monday following a two-year investigation.
Morla, 39, has been a police officer for 13 years. She has been suspended with pay since the investigation commenced in late 2022, according to RCMP spokesperson Fraser Logan.
Two male victims
Court records show the two alleged victims are males.
The alleged assaults took place on Dec. 3, 2022, "while a group of people were socializing," according to ASIRT.
The civilian oversight agency was directed to investigate the matter on Dec. 13, 2022.
ASIRT sent its investigative findings to the Alberta Crown Prosecution Service, which determined that the case met its standard for prosecution.
Morla was released from custody and is set to make her first court appearance in Airdrie next week.
ASIRT investigates incidents involving police that result in serious injury or death, as well as allegations of police misconduct.

News from Newfoundland and Labrador, 14 July
1. Police continue to investigate stabbing in St Johns in Topsail Road.
A 34-year-old man was seriously injured in a stabbing in the west end of St. John’s.
The assault took place between Bay Bulls Road and Topsail Road.
Police are urging anyone with information or video footage of the area during the specified time to come forward.
2. A man from Bell Island is facing charges after being caught on 12 July with drugs in a car which was pulled over for speeding.  He was driving while his licence was suspended and showing signs of driving impaired.
3. Near miss at Braya refinery.  A Stop-work order has not been issued by the department. 
Occupational Health and Safety is investigating a "near-miss" incident at the Braya refinery in Come By Chance, involving drilling on a repurposed line that had previously been in nitrogen service.
The line was not in service or under pressure at the time of the incident, and internal analysis was conducted before sharing the findings with OHS and employees.
This incident comes almost a year after a fatal explosion at the refinery, which resulted in a criminal negligence investigation by the RCMP.
4.  Clean-up underway after an unexpected tornado in Half Moon Bay.
5. Electrically-serviced campsites in loops A and B of Newman Sound Campground in Terra Nova Park are currently without power.
6. Oceana Canada is concerned about DFO’s failure to close Capelin Fishery [via VOCM].
OC says that the Canadian government, specifically the Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO), is not effectively incorporating climate change data and research into fisheries management decisions, which is exacerbating the depletion of fish stocks.
7. Candidate Tony Wakeham is releasing his healthcare plan for connecting residents with a primary provider for healthcare.
Tony Wakeham's health care plan focuses on improving access to timely care in Newfoundland and Labrador by connecting every resident with a primary health care provider and establishing family health care teams.
The plan prioritizes job offers to health care professionals at the beginning of their training to address the shortage of healthcare providers in the province.
Wakeham emphasizes the urgency of addressing the lack of access to health care and believes that waiting for the long-term vision of the Health Accord is not feasible for the province.
8. Musgrave Harbour failed to respond to two access to information requests, the Office of the Information and Privacy Commissioner has found [per VOCM].
9. It is peak tourism for Newfoundland and Labrador right now. Business has picked up but the sector still faces challenges, including air access [per VOCM].
Small businesses in the hospitality industry, such as restaurants and tour companies, are relying on a busy summer season to help cover costs and repay loans taken out during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Staffing shortages, inflation, and rising food prices are adding to the challenges faced by businesses in the summer, but increased tourism can help offset these difficulties.
Business owners are implementing strategies such as menu changes, hiring immigrants, and raising prices to adapt to the current economic conditions and make the most of the summer season.

Thursday 15th June 2023
After Cockerel Gate, the latest challenge was access to Tofino. The problem lay with connections through Port Alberni on Highway 4. A forest fire has caused a lot of damage with landslides and the need for a safety survey of trees lining the roads. We called into the Tourist Information office to get advice. It was rather like approaching one of those guys in B&Q that have 'Can I Help' on their back, when you know full well the answer is most definitely, probably not. Our TI girl fell into that category, so we went to find a Royal Canadian Mounted Police person. They always get their man! Well we found a very nice lady in the RCMP station and she told us we probably could get to Tofino via a 2 hour bumpy ride on gravel roads being sure to keep out of the way of constant logging trucks and queuing for single track creek bridges. Well none of that sounded too attractive and I'm sure Mr Alamo would not approve, so with the only alternative available being to catch a seaplane or waiting a month for the road to reopen, we gave up and last minute booked Airbnb at Sooke thanks to the brilliant assistance of Reese Witherspoon and her team at the Lake Cowichan library. They were so pleased we had found somewhere and they thoroughly approved of Sooke. Fair swap, but disappointed we shall not make it to Tofino.
We felt honoured however to find that we are the very first guests in this brand new Airbnb property and very nice it is too. We have panoramic views across the ocean to the USA.
Our trip here from Lake Cowichan took us through Port Renfrew, which was very photogenic but mainly famous for its pub apparently. It's possible we saw a seal but it equally could have been seaweed. Were this not enough to pull people into this rather remote location, it does have a circular botanical trail through the forest and along the beach. How could we resist the challenge and possibility of a bear encounter! The notice announced that bears have been spotted today!! Very nice walk but no bears so we continued our journey along the south coast of the island to Sooke. We shall have to review tonight what exciting things there are to do here on this uncharted and unscheduled stop. Apparently there are such things as the Sooke Pot Holes. I'm just hoping these are more impressive than Gloucestershire pot holes.
Our host tells us bears have been spotted in their neighbour's garden. We shall keep a look out, although we are beginning to think this bear thing is all made up!

1 Actor, 2 Characters - Due South : Pilot
Inspired by my realization that RCMP Officer 2 (Pilot) and Jocelyn Kerr (The Ladies' Man) are both played by Jennifer (Jen) Parsons, I decided to check the cast list from IMDb and see if there were any other actors who appear as 2 (or more) different characters in the due South universe. To my surprise, there are several from the pilot alone! Many of these characters lack readily available screenshots (and some I couldn't identify by name alone) so I went through the episodes to compile this side-by-side list.
I may continue this search through the rest of the episodes, mainly relying on cast information from IMDb, the credits of the episodes themselves, and these wonderful annotated transcripts. And since some characters are unnamed and/or uncredited, maybe I'll even spot some new ones! Also, I am 100% open to contributions and/or corrections, so if anyone has anything they'd like to add, I'm all ears!
Without further ado, listed by actor and mostly in order of appearance...
Paul Gross - I almost skipped PG before remembering that he has indeed played another character on dS! So here's PG as Benton Fraser (Pilot) and as Frannie's German fiancé (Dead Men Don't Throw Rice, S4E5)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
2. Kimberly Ange - RCMP Officer 1 and also appears in Victoria's Secret Part 2 (S1E21) as an attorney named Boswell (credited as Kim Ange)
and
3. Jennifer Parsons, the one who started it all - RCMP Officer 2 and also appears in The Ladies' Man (S4E3) as Jocelyn Kerr, who wants to have bark tea with Fraser (credited as Jen Parsons)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
4. Scot Dentor/Denton - RCMP Officer 4 (credited as Scot Dentor in the pilot but listed on IMDb as Scot Denton). IMDb also identifies Scot Denton as the uncredited actor who plays Pierce (the ambassador targeted in The Edge, S2E9)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
5. Barry Kennedy *** - This one I'm not so sure on. Barry Kennedy plays a character called Bert Jenkins in the Pilot but as far as I could tell, no character is called this aloud in the episode itself. Working backwards from Kennedy's other dS credit (Sgt Eddie Polito in The Ladies' Man, S4E3, uncredited, per IMDb), I still struggled with a definitive ID. Based on the annotated transcript of TLM, I believe the man on the right in TLM screenshot below is Kennedy's character Polito. Based on this, and the fact that the supporting characters seem to be credited roughly in order of appearance in the Pilot, my best guess is that Kennedy's dS Pilot character is the pilot who talks to Fraser about the lack of geese and beavers. They look like they could possibly be the same guy?? Maybe?
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
6. Philip Williams - Herb Lantrell, the pilot who gives Fraser the list of American dentists who'd been hunting in the Pilot, also appears as the arms dealer Lloyd P Nash (the P does not stand for pertinent) in Bird in the Hand (S2E4).
Tumblr media Tumblr media
7. JD/Jack Nicholsen - the unnamed Airport Hustler (credited as such even though he does return the money to Fraser at the end of the Pilot) is also 2 other characters: Caulfield (one of the bad guys stealing pets in The Wild Bunch, S1E15) and Joey (Denny Scarpa/Lady Shoes' trigger man in Odds, S4E6)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
8. Gene Mack - the Chicago Desk Sergeant in the Pilot is also credited as Mason Dixon, the associate of Devlin (the boxing trainer in Mountie & Soul S3E7). Mack is credited as Chicago Desk Sergeant but does have a name tag in the Pilot, although it is quite blurry.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
9. Dan Lett - Dr. Weingarten (the dentist in the Pilot) is also Carver Dunn (the creepy fan who uses blackmail to barter for the singer Tracy's stockings in Mountie Sings the Blues, S4E7)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
10. Ramona Milano - Francesca Vecchio! And also appears as Deputy Bernie in Dr. Longball (S4E1).
Dr. Longball of course has other main cast members playing different characters, but I plan to cover those as I make my way through the episodes chronologically in the hopes that it'll help me keep track of which actors/episodes I've checked.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
11. Sandi Stahlbrand - TV Reporter Shelley Perry from Channel 6 News in the Pilot and TV Reporter Tracy Wightman (apparently from Channel 7) in Red, White, or Blue (S2E17)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
12. Kevin Rushton - an honorable mention! I didn't think to include Rushton until I saw the IMDb trivia point him out in the bar scene in the Pilot. Rushton does stunts on the show and presumably appears in several episodes, which I think thereby technically meets the brief of playing multiple characters (unless there is a case to be made that Rushton plays a recurring character role? which could be an interesting take). But either way, shout out to all the dS stunt folks!
IMDb specifically credits Rushton for appearances in Diefenbaker's Day Off (S1E2), A Cop, a Mountie and a Baby (S1E9), You Must Remember This (S1E11), and One Good Man(S2E8).

7 Snippets and 7 People
Thanks to @saintedseraph for the tag!
I'm nibpressure tagging @human-still-developing @moondust-bard @authorlaurawinter and whoever else wants to join in!
All these snippets are from Book 4 of A New Age of Magic.
1.
Instead, we reached out to the RCMP in the hopes that they would be able to reunite her body with her family. It took a long time for any of the cops to find us, even after we had moved closer to the edge of the woods. After the massive car accident and the moose Destiny had summoned to demolish several RCMP vehicles, they still had multiple injured officers out of commission and a lot of chaos to unravel even the next morning.
2.
The stretch of silence that followed vibrated with rage at all I had left unspoken for too long. My heart was heavy as a stone and painful as a broken bone. How would she ever forgive me? Did I even deserve her friendship anymore?
3.
By late morning, just as we reached the city limits, it began to rain.The rain was light, thankfully, but it made our brick and concrete surroundings especially dull and dreary after so long walking through woods and fields. The heavy clouds threatened to weep as only autumn skies could, and none of us wanted to linger outside longer than we had to.
4.
“Did you come here to grovel and offer excuses? Because you should have already learned that that won’t help you.” A thunderous crack exploded through the phone, like falling tree or a breaking bone. I jumped, fumbling not to drop my phone, pressing my back against the wall as my shaking legs gave out.
5.
The shattered glass and debris had since been cleared from the road, but there was no hiding what had happened here: Tire marks from cars screeching to a halt, grass burnt black from Gwiber’s flames, and blood stains. So many blood stains. I knew, eventually, even the worst of the damage would grow over or wash away. But when we stopped on the shoulder of the highway to plan our next step, the evidence of our failure seemed loud. Bold. Permanent. How many more roads would look like this if we didn’t stop Arman?
6.
The grass turned verdant in warning a second before it lengthened, hundreds of thin blades wrapping around my wrists and ankles, rapidly winding across my limbs. I tried to yank away, but they grew too quick and too sudden – my vision swam and head pounded from the effort – bile burned my throat again.
7.
The front windows shattered, showering me and Emily in glass as massive dragon claws crushed the roof of the vehicle in their grip. “Bail!” I screamed, grabbing the door handle and bashing my shoulder against the ruined door. It took three tries. We were twenty feet in the air above a smouldering field, but there was nowhere else to go. I jumped.

Alberta's police watchdog has determined the amount of force used by RCMP officers in the shooting death on Highway 2 near Leduc of an armed man in May 2020 was justified, with its report into the incident saying there are no "reasonable grounds to believe an offence was committed."
The 27-year-old man and an RCMP officer were injured in the shooting, with the man dying at the scene.
Matthew Block, the assistant executive director of the Alberta Serious Incident Response Team (ASIRT), said in the report the agency concluded the five officers' reactions to the man, when he got out of his car, "were reasonable" as they had a duty to protect others from an "immediate and lethal threat."

From "Would you die for the cause: Revolution in 1960s Quebec"
For the record this is NOT terrorist propaganda, much of it is framed through the former mayor of Montreal (against, obviously) however there was an undercover cop character where literally everything he said made me hate him more lol. I wanted to share that scene with you.
My pictures are quite bad so I will attempt to transcribe
Panel 1, on a picket line. Vallières and two cops are present, with cartoon violence implying Vallières is punching at the cops.
Narration, in the voice of a worker (Claude Pépin): "and each time the cops moved to break things up, he never backed down."
Vallières: "Did you hear what I said? We'll shut the whole place down!"
Panel 2, those same cops beating up Vallières.
Narration: "He always stood his ground and set an example for the rest of us."
Cop: "Sure you will, sure."
Panel 3, a cop shoving Vallières to the ground.
Narration: "He did it all, no matter what the cost was to himself"
Panel 4, we see the current narrator telling this story, some years later, in interview format.
Claude Pépin: "He wanted to help us. That's the part about Vallières I'll never forget."
Panel 5, another interview like setting with a different person.
Perspective switch: "Gaetan Leclair, former undercover RCMP officer"
Leclair: "I called it early. Vallières was ready to start a revolution"
Panel 6, back on the picket line, Leclair is visible blending in with the striking workers. Another worker is in front, talking to Vallières.
Narration, now from Leclair: "Somewhere around mid-1965 I was working undercover as one of the striking employees at the LAGRENADE shoe factory. I saw everything."
Worker: "Less than two dollars an hour!"
Panel 7, Vallières is visible addressing the crowd of striking workers.
Narration: "One day this guy, Vallières, started showing up on the picket line"
Vallières: "Of course they pay you less than two dollars an hour. What would you expect?"
Panel 8.
Narration: "He wasn't part of any union, as far as I could tell. So I figured he was just there to stir up trouble."
Worker: "How do they keep getting away with it?"
Vallières: "I'll tell you why--"
Panel 9.
Narration: "He had an answer for everything."
Vallières: "They get away with it because the capitalist system encourages them to mistreat you and trample your rights underfoot."
Panel 10.
Narration: "Until then, I had never seen anyone as effective in whipping up a crowd."
Vallières: "They do it because they're allowed to exploit your labour!"
Panel 11, wider shot of the line.
Narration: "He had them set to topple the whole system."
Vallières: "And if any of you have the audacity to complain, they'll replace you with a bunch of lower-paid SCABS."
Panel 12.
Narration: "Who else was capable of creating such anarchy?"
Vallières: "But we're not going to let them get away with any of this, are we? We're going to shut this whole place down!"
Workers: "HURRAH"
Panel 13, same as panel 1.
Narration: "Thank God these things usually ended with the police stepping in and taking care of things."
Vallières: "Did you hear what I said? We'll shut the whole place down!"
Panel 14, same as panel 2.
Narration: "All I can say is that son-of-a-bitch got what he deserved."
Cop: "Sure you will, sure."
Panel 15, same as panel 3.
Narration: "He was asking for it, no question there."
Panel 16, interview perspective with Leclair again.
Leclair: "Believe me, he really wanted to destroy everything. That's the part about Vallières I'll never forget."
END
I found this extremely effective. This was our first introduction to Vallières in the book. I really like the repetition of lines and artwork from different perspectives. My first reaction after reading this book was it wasn't very good. Like, it has significantly less information than something like "The Making of The October Crisis". However, once I read the appendices it was pretty clear they were just picking and choosing which things were dramatic enough to draw. Also, "The Making of the October Crisis" was CONSTANTLY sucking off the Montr��al police. In this book the police are usually violent incompetent or both.
Like, this guy is responsible for the deaths of a 16 year old and a secretary, but goddamn is this scene something to look up to. I can't recommend punching cops (assault on an officer is a serious charge), but please do visit a picket, I can almost guarantee they'll be happy you came. Solidarity :)
Anyhow this has been me NOT glazing terrorists, hope my friends at CSIS have a very nice day and also quit their jobs. Wait I'm in America. Copy that, but for the... NSA? Something like that. And the asshole at homeland security that messed up my well organized visa paperwork. ACAB.

US Entry Waiver: 7 Things You Need to Know
Tumblr media
If you have a criminal record and want to travel from Canada to the United States, there are 7 key things you need to know.
1/ Who needs a US Entry Waiver?
- If you’ve been convicted of a crime in Canada, you may be refused entry into the United States. - This is true regardless of how long ago your conviction was. - The United States would label you criminally inadmissible to enter the United States. - And your inadmissibility would apply even if you were passing through a US airport or border on your way to another country. - The only way to enter the United States would be to get a valid US Entry Waiver.
2/ How fast can I get a US Entry Waiver?
- The fastest way to get a US waiver is to work with a lawyer with access to the electronic filing system controlled by the US Customs and Border Protection agency. - This system is called the e-SAFE system. - Our law firm has direct access to this e-SAFE system, saving you months of processing time. - For the most part, this access is restricted to licensed law firms. - So, if you hire a service, ask if they have direct access to the e-SAFE system and if they are a licensed lawyer.   - This will save you months of time and frustration.
3/ How do I get a US Entry Waiver?
- To enter the United States from Canada with a criminal conviction, you need to get permission from the United States Department of Homeland Security. - This permission is granted in the form of what’s called a US Entry Waiver. - This US Entry Waiver enables Canadians with criminal convictions, which are labelled as criminally inadmissible, to enter the United States. - Without a US Entry Waiver, you will be barred from entering the United States.
4/ Can you be denied a US Waiver?
- Yes, you can be denied a US Waiver.  - There is a division inside the United States Customs and Border Protection agency called the Administration Review Office, known as the ARO. - The ARO is responsible for reviewing and making decisions on admissibility waivers. - Some of the most common reasons the ARO will reject your application are that your application was not completed correctly, didn't include all the necessary supporting documents or failed to demonstrate that you've been adequately rehabilitated. - If the ARO  intends to reject your application, they will notify you as to why and give you a chance to respond.
5/ Can you enter the US with a Canadian Pardon?
- Generally, the answer is no. - A Pardon in Canada, now called a Record Suspension, is granted by the Parole Board of Canada. - With a Record Suspension or Pardon, the Parole Board will direct the RCMP to remove your criminal record from the Criminal Records database. - But here’s the issue. - A Canadian Pardon has no jurisdiction in the United States.   - This means that the US Customs and Border Protection agency is not bound by the Canadian legal system and has no obligation to consider your Pardon when you try to enter the United States.
6/ How much is a US Entry Waiver in Canada?
- The filing fee for an Application for Advance Permission to Enter as a Non-immigrant, is $585 US dollars. - This fee is paid directly to the US Citizenship and Immigration Services agency.
7/ How long does a US Entry Waiver last?
- A US Entry Waiver is granted for one, two or five years. - The decision on how long to grant you depends on factors such as the strength of your application, the severity of your crimes, the time since your convictions occurred and whether you are applying for a first-time Waiver, or a renewal Waiver. - Once you get a Waiver, you can travel anywhere in the United States, and you can visit as many times as you want. - However, if you want to stay longer than three months, additional forms may be required and must be completed, notarized, and submitted with the application. - You need to apply again at the end of your one, two or five-year term to get a Waiver renewal. https://youtu.be/ndxXg14OGjs Read the full article
