For all the Canadian residents of the North Coast,
this is to confirm that there will be a Town Hall meeting this Friday (time TBD) with the Embassy and Consular officials to address any matters of concern and interest, as well as the opportunity for us to meet the new Ambassador George Boiss?, who assumed his new post as of October 2012.
Just to clarify, I sent an inquiry to the Canadian Embassy in Santo Domingo last Wednesday regarding my concerns about the proposed changes for renewing the permanent residency in the DR, and received a prompt e-mail reply AND a follow up call from the Embassy the next day acknowledging my concerns and inviting me to personally meet with the new Ambassador to discuss this issue further. My dealings with the Embassy over the past 6 years have always been very positive and I encourage all Canadian expats to attend. Please PM me you are looking for further information, otherwise, see you there.
