Why doesn't DFAIT/MAECI have a phone queu? Everyone in Canada is calling the same number, getting two menus (one of which is 9 items long), and the blasted busy message says to hang up and try again. But only after saying "You have reached the Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade enquiry service, Bienvenu au Ministère des Affaires Étrangères et Commerce International". And every time, I listen to that bloody message, hoping that I'll stumble into a queu. But no, there is no such thing. *phone rage*

Road rage is what replaced phone rage.

Wanna know something weird? Canadian Immigration helpline - very helpful. Got through each time. Helpful lady each time. FOR REAL!

So, um, try them instead?

Lol. That explains it. Only one branch of the government is allowed to be efficient and courteous at any one time. It's on a rotating basis.

ohh, you have a point. They have two good people - this year they are in immigration. Please try again next year.
