You've Got to be Kidding

Here's another classic example of Canadian Bureaucracy gone amok. Sharon Gless can't get landed immigrant status. The reason given for the current two year wait to even get her file opened.... She doesn't have enough education to qualify as a skilled worker. One might think that life experience and qualification might have something to do with it. One might also consider the credential she brings in the form of her past work in film and television, industries that the Canadian Gov't is trying to support and grow, in many examples by luring film makers from producing those same movies elsewhere. i.e. the U.S. So finally an American star wants to move to Toronto instead of the other way around and how do we respond...... By making her wait what will be three years before her file is even opened.
