I doubt that a business that isn't making money can hire you if you want to stay here

blue the wheel width should be stamped on the inside of the wheel.....

mark i believe you would have to work for a stable company for like 5-6 yrs.... you can open and do a side job/company while working it..... kass i believe can still sponser you.... this new company would just have to take its time getting off the ground....

i can check into the rules if you wish i do deal with citizenship stuff more then the others.... i will do what any man in my position would.....

thats right ask my wife.... she is a new canadian citizen too

actually kass u should talk to ella..... but i think a new company can not sponser him, and you wont be able too either.... if i remember correct you need to make like 75 000 a yr.... thats for a individual to sponser him.... as for the new company i believe thats self explanitory.... a company that makes little money can not do it as resort back to the dollar number for individual.... also you have a secondary issue with that, coz you would be the owner of company, the government would definately frown on it....

however the good news is that it is easy to get a job here, and he will be able to find a job that would sponser him within 6 months..... ella came here on a sponsership from delta.... they sponsered her when she lived in the phills..... it goes to show you if mark was here working then i am sure the company he works for will sponser him.... also the draw back is he would have to stay there working for like 2 or 3 yrs..... he would have to stay employed for the time til he gains citizenship....... there many red tape lines in citizenship..... it sux i know, we are dealing with it coz we are trying to get ella's sister here too.... and i cant sponser her due to i dont make enough.... ella said she could try to help you but she doesnt know everything either....

I have a friend doing a sponsorship for her husband. You have to make something like 14.75 an hour in order to sponsor someone.

As far as I know Mark is looking for a job. I think he's more interested in starting his own company eventually, but he can't do it without being a citizen.

re: american-Mark
I believe that there are standing programs which do allow Americans to get green cards(?) without a job before hand.
I have not looked i to it too deeply, but both USA & Canada do this with each others citizens.

Also unlike Canadian-Marks' Ella, you shouldn't need a sponsorship to get here...

I'm certain that there is something on the Canadian gov't website which should be able to help you.

yeah when you have a 7" wheel for example. it'll actually measure 8" if you go from outside to outside. which is where most people get confused. the 7" is actually from inside to inside. against the wall where the tire mounts. which are 0.50" wide.

255/50/16x7 vs 245/50/16x7.

my street tires are the 245/50/16's on the right. there is no way you are on an 8" or 8.5" wheel when a 255 sits like that in your pictures.

Actually we've been talking about this for a while, and having a "meeting" with Jamie's dad was the main reason why I drove to Prince George just after Christmas;
Depending on the date I might get the real toy done up for the event - the '70
