[At-Large] The visa to Canada and fall of participation

I think we all have the right to comment.

I must remember that I cited the example of a country in Asia Pacific, where several colleagues were granted a visa, and denied it to a single applicant from that same country. That does not seem to be racism.

Also for what is missing to travel, unfortunately I believe that there is no solution possible unless it is pending.

Also in July I gave notice of the problem to carry out the procedures well in advance, due to the complexity and the amount of data that were requested.

I agree with what Seun expressed.

Hi Evan and colleagues

I think its important for those who do not really have solution to proffer to simply keep mute and get busy some where else than pressing send on their devices, rather than trying to defend indefensible being experienced in this visa bottleneck and stop infuriating the situation.

Its vexing enough that after people have traveled to US, UK, Germany and made it successfully back and even without any atom of evidence, one embassy will now thinks it has the legality to impose an allegation of plans to migrate to Canada to do what there? Join body of unemployed.

As far as I am concerned which has been evidently shown, the Canadian visa scheme was a fraud based on generating revenue rather than looking at genuineness of subject matters.

And as long as its not visa to haven, its taken as one of those things, although my concern is the unfounded allegations, which if left unpunctured, stands in their records as truth. So, I will advise any one who applied and was given the so-called visa denial to ensure they respond by clearing the air via reapplication possibly or merely writing a refutal to the corresponding embassy.

Hello Alan.

Responding from your last paragraph : What has procrastination got to do with applying for visa early when ICANN has to first of all put in place the needed documents and information to support any application. So, the problem is not from the applicant but the organizers who should know better. 

This goes to your correct observation about ICANN travel not doing enough due diligence in this matter before now. I attend international conferences especially as a United Nations Permanent Rep and A UNFCCC Designated Contact person. What the organizers do is to agree on a code with the host country foreign affairs ministry for ACCREDITED Delegates. With this, they re exempted mostly from the stringent requirements for ordinary applicants. Icann has been doing this now for over 70 times and should have by now known how to navigate this bureaucracy. What I still find very insulting from Canada is to allude that all applicants from selected countries are potential immigrants when these applicants have shown clear evidence of having been to the USA and Europe without migrating! I asked what is so special about Canada? 

Finally, Alan I could suspect you are a Canadian from your position so far. With your insider knowledge and experience, and considering how deep rooted you are in ICANN why did you not form part of the local host to help avert these unnecessary hoola baloo? 

 

Instead of trying to challenge my frustration with the system of Canada, I expect you to proffer workable solution and support for those having visa problems. Why must I try to impress Canada with ALL I have got to demonstrate I will return? If I want to stay, that will not prevent me from staying back. Afterall I won't forfeit my assets to Canada if I refuse to leave. That is why their reasons make no sense to me.
