Mar. 28th, 2005 01:07 pmThere is something I want to do, (it's religious even) but they're asking me to renounce my Canadian citizenship in order to do it. I've called both the Canadian consulate in Los Angeles as well as the embassy in Washington D.C. and can't get a hold of a live person since my question doesn't exactly fit into the taped messages they have.
I feel like a bastard child, and I don't like it. Reading about dual citizens further revealed that I can't even use my Canadian passport to enter the U.S. if I've been abroad. Normally I only go to Mexico and back to Canada, so I can just use my birth certificate for that. So it looks like I can't even travel outside North America now unless I fly in and out of Toronto.
I really, really, REALLY hate being backed into a corner like this.

Mar. 28th, 2005 02:29 pmSo here's the situation:
I sent my advisors my dissertation over a month ago. I haven't heard back, so I revised my bibliography and sent that. No response.
Mme. Couture, who is one of my advisors, is refusing to write reference letters so I can look for work.
I just got denied a job because of my dual citizenship.
I feel the walls closing in on me and don't know what to do.
