Immigrate to Canada with Hep C?

tim - 22 May 2006 05:34 GMT
I haven't been here in a long time. I read and occasionally posted to
ash.c awhile back, but when it became clear that I'm not sick (yes, I
have HCV, it's just not doing my liver any harm yet), I decided to think
about other stuff in my life for a change. Just now I took a peek at
recent threads and was delighted to find Cody still attacking
Christianity and being attacked by Christians, Spidey supporting him,
and Elmo making excretory, sacreligious jokes. I miss you guys, and Dez
(sigh!) and Mom and a bunch of others. One of these years I'll be back,
whining about treatment (I can whine with the best) and looking for
sympathy, and I sincerely hope Elmo makes fart jokes about it.

But that's not the reason for this post. This is. My wife and I are
thinking about applying to immigrate to Canada. We are both US citizens,
I was born in the US, she was born in Japan. We both have lots of
education and work experience and I have relatives in BC. From what I
can tell, the only potential hurdle is my HCV positive status.
Everything I can find on the Web is vague, for example:

Applicants may be rejected solely on medical grounds, if:
    * their condition would endanger the health or safety of the
Canadian population at large,
    * their admission might cause excessive demand on social or health
services provided by the government, or
    * their condition might reasonably prevent them from supporting
themselves and those dependent upon them.

And of course the decision is made by some bureaucrat. Are there any
Canadian immigration lawyers around here? If not, how about some random
opinions? Or just question my sanity for wanting to leave the US. Any
kind of attention is good. It's being ignored that I can't stand.

Hello Tim.
I haven't a clue about the stuff you're asking about.  I'm only

Best of luck with it.

treatment by now? How'd it go?

Treatment finished a long time ago for me (August '04).  Some of the
24 weeks were pretty bumpy but the most recent test (18 months post tx
a few weeks ago) revealed that the virus was still undetectable.  I
suppose I can call that a cure.

Considering the groovy new Stop Loss program, it's quite possible. I
would be very worried if I were her. Perhaps you should view the flash
movie I posted. You might learn something. But, then again, that might
prevent you from childishly hurling virtual turds and farts my way.

Yes, I'm certain that hc is, or was, quite worried about her son, just
like every mother that has a son in harms way. And you, in your usual

No, what I did was post the I'm Fixin' to Die Blues by Country Joe and

And your example of respect and empathy is hurling virtual turds and farts?

Your agenda based opinion.

Oh, I see, calling someone a jackass is also showing respect and empathy?

Just trying to learn from the master of maturity who shows respect and
empathy for others' feelings. Should I also say someone lives in a dust
bin in the middle of a campo turd to really grow up properly? Should I
care if minors might read my words on the open Internet or is that just
for immature people like me?

Considering that *anyone* who goes to Iraq stands a very good chance of
coming home in a box, my point is good. Of course, Elmo didn't mention
that all I did was post the song by Country Joe and the Fish about Viet
Nam which is still applicable today. Remember, HC's son did not get
drafted. He volunteered and what with the new Stop Loss program, they
can keep him in Iraq forever.

Sooooooo, instead of getting pissed off at the American government for
fooling HC's son, everyone gets pissed off at the messenger, me.

Yes, there's something very wrong here.

Hey cody you canine feces collector,
 You know, young people have imaginations.  Some youngfolk are drawn to
things like fast cars, get as much as you can nookie, alcohol and drugs, the
latest look, hairstyles, uniformed and carrying the latest verions of the
M-16 around, whatever.  Were you denied the ability to act on your
imagination perhaps when you were 15 to 25?   It makes me wonder why you
don't use more subjective opinion rather than as you do, expect many readers
to agree and support your points, even though you use tirade and invective
rather than suggestion and encouragement?  If you did more of that and less
challengiing the thin veneers of stability that have got a lot of us up to
this point in this life, then you could use your imagination to explain what
attracts you to your particular version of Buddhist avocation, or perhaps
what its like waiting for treatment for HCV for so long or comments about
the personality (not necessarily farts) and bolstering it, if addressing
them.  You really don't have much more than a smattering of virtual respect
when you sh.t on peoples shrines, do you?  That's only done in places like
Saudi Arabia and Northern India, places that westerners should be concerned
about like twenty years ago.

just a thought

I know that calling someone a "canine feces collector" isn't support. I
know that blowing virtual farts in peoples' faces isn't support. I know
that hurling virtual turds isn't support. YMMV.

I also know that if and when I go into treatment, I will get support
from people in person. We have a very large, real life, hep support
group where I live and, yes, they are very supportive. I suspect they
have one where you and the others on this list live but I guess your
interpersonal skills can be summed up by:

"Hey cody you canine feces collector"

and you're forced to get support on line so you don't have to actually
meet someone.

Cody, some trite observations:
part of having a creative imagination is having a postive sense of humour
and a bit of humility.

I met a couple from Singapore who talked in terms of the concept of "face".
People might expect civility, at least or in the best case, exchange of face
saving gestures in order to carry on civil and courteous discourse.  Or are
you in your imagination the Unibomber?

Dropped Into Still Waters

The Ripple Effect

In a world of six billion people, it's easy to believe that the only way to
initiate profound transformation is to take extreme action. Each of us,
however, carries within us the capacity to change the world in small ways
for better or worse. Everything we do and think affects the people in our
lives, and their reactions in turn affect others. As the effect of a
seemingly insignificant word passes from person to person, its impact grows
and can become a source of great joy, inspiration, anxiety, or pain. Your
thoughts and actions are like stones dropped into still waters, causing
ripples to spread and expand as they move outward. The impact you have on
the world is greater than you could ever imagine, and the choices you make
can have far-reaching consequences. You can use the ripple effect to make a
positive difference and spread waves of kindness that will wash over the
world.

Should the opportunity arise, the recipient of a good deed will likely feel
compelled to do a good deed for someone else. Someone feeling the effects of
negative energy will be more likely to pass on that negative energy. One act
of charity, one thoughtful deed, or even one positive thought can pass from
individual to individual, snowballing until it becomes a group movement or
the ray of hope that saves someone's life. Every transformation, just like
every ripple, has a point of origin. You must believe in your ability to be
that point of origin if you want to use the ripples you create to spread
goodness. Consider the effect of your thoughts and actions, and try to act
graciously as much as possible.

A smile directed at a stranger, a compliment given to a friend, an attitude
of laughter, or a thoughtful gesture can send ripples that spread among your
loved ones and associates, out into your community, and finally throughout
the world. You have the power to touch the lives of everyone you come into
contact with and everyone those people come into contact with. The momentum
of your influence will grow as your ripples moves onward and outward. One of
those ripples could become a tidal wave of love and kindness.

Elmo i have been colder at heart concerning cody. but the casket bit was
as low as  cody can be. i never considered being friendly towards him.
some folks would say he has that right. yea, i guess. but thats why i
like the good ole boy approach. a length of good rope or a horse whip or
good old fashioned tar and feathering. you see, we had less rapes,
murders etc etc etc in the south . call it what you may, we just did not
(and some of us are still around!) tolerate the bullshit. period. you
treated ladies with respect. kept your hands to yourself unless you
wanted to have your eyes beat shut. and you spoke with respect in
public. the days when men were men are about gone. now its call the
cops, smoke crack, wear your pants down to your knees and your sister
can screw anybody and thats cool. bull! the way it is actually sucks.

Yes, Cody's posts have been condescending, disrespectful, and insulting.
So? Is that a reason to constantly add to the nastiness by following him
around and posting more insults? Flinging virtual turds may be funny
once, but not 25 times.

I've been pretty open with Cody, I've criticized him when it was
warranted, and I've been pretty harsh with him lately. I've called him
(and I stand by that) a fundamentalist of a different color, and I've
bashed him for being one of the causes for the deterioration of this
group. But I have to repeat: he by no means is the only one to blame.

The whole HC affair was sometime in 2004. Thip's departure because of
Cody caused a lot of other good folks to throw in the towel as well, but
not because of Cody, but because of the completely irrational response
to Cody's post. And you were in the front line there as well. Bearing
grudges for months and years, and attacking Cody even while he was still
relatively "tame", only contributed to a general nastiness in tone that
other nasties latched on to and amplified. No wonder many valuable
people who have a life and don't need this group left in disgust. I've
been posting less and less myself. It's time things improve, and you're
not helping. Stop your vendetta, you won't change Cody anyway, and
nobody needs your help "defending" them against the big bad wolf. Only
you can prevent newsgroup fires... ;-)

Coming from someone who usually posts intelligent comments I must say this

Cody is an obsessive compulsive twit, nothing more.  He has never, to my
memory, contributed anything related to HCV, only irrelevant nonsense in an
effort to insult and provoke.  Surely you see this through this twit, as he
is paper thin.

To accuse Elmo of fanning the flames here while defending this twit is
ridiculous.

I can only assume you must be suffering from a hemorrhoid flare-up or other
condition that has temporarily impaired your judgment.  My condolences.

Elmo has nothing to apologize for.

Oh, f.ck off. Things aren't that stupidly simple. I'm not defending Cody
in any way, shape, or form. But when Elmo is making sh.t up to discredit
Cody, that's not right, either.

As I've said over and over again, if nobody would react to Cody, there
would be no Cody problem. But since nobody wants to killfile Elmo, and
Elmo constantly spars with Cody, we end up with constant disruption and
inanely idiotic endless exchanges of invectives and insults. And Elmo
isn't the only culprit, Russ and others are perpetuating the idiocy.

Is that supposed to be supportive? Or funny? I only find it sad. And I'm
obviously not the only one. But most of the others that also found those
exchanges disgusting have already left. But I guess that's OK with you.

This is all so screwed up... I know you mean well for the group, but
what you're actually accomplishing is just the opposite of what you
intend. I'm sorry for singling you out, but that HC story was just so
completely wrong, and incited such outrage at least with Sara (and
probably other lurkers), that I had to correct you.

I'll try again to get my point across... what exactly do you think
you'll accomplish by responding to Cody's posts? You know him and his
history long enough that you should also know that he will never go
away, especially not when he's under attack. So what, other than cheap
gratification of your personal anger, do you gain with your responses?
And at what cost to this group?

And that's a comment not only to you, but to everyone else who thinks
they can shout Cody down until he leaves. He won't, and to a degree I
actually have to admire him for standing his ground. The way he's doing
that sucks IMAO, but that's the way he is. Shouting at him only
reinforces that behavior.

So again, please ask yourselves who gains and who loses when you attack
Cody. This group doesn't gain, it loses. Support loses. But Cody seems

The Three Stooges!    It just reminds me what I feel like doing to Cody
sometimes.  He is just such a pathetic little plebe but has figured out how
to push everybody's buttons.  By the way what ever happened to that picture
of him on the family web page?

I had this big huge pile of dog crap in my back yard by the bird bath.  It
was really enormous and my wife ran it over with the lawnmower I could just
see Cody everywhere and I could smell him too!  ehehehehehahahahah!

Elmo,

In regard to your query on whether or not the topic of immigrating to
Canada is of interest to me because I want to become Canadian myself,
the answer is no. I just find the issue interesting as a part of
comparative socioeconomic issues.

That said, I will admit that the prospect of living in a free country
does appeal to me, and the idea of day moving to Canada does cross my
mind from time to time. But I am a U.S. Citizen and somewhat ensconced
where I am now, so for practical convenience, I will almost certainly
continue to live in the United States.

Yes, I've dabbled with the occasional thought of emmigrating to a
foreign country myself.  However, I am firmly ensconced where I'm at and
it would take alot to get me ensconced somewhere else.  But if I were to
become ensconced elsewhere, the place I'd ensconce would have to have

Dunno. I wrote to Waterspider. If she can dig up something useful, I'll

I'm thinking I should ask the question again with the subject line,

Here's and ecerpt from an Editorial in the Vancouver Sun from Friday.
Although the preliminary part does not supply working criteria for
immigrants with infectious deseases in general, scroll down about half way
to find an interpretation of the selection of immigrants (not refugee or
family class).  I have no idea if this is defiinitive or not, but it seems
the editors of the paper may have sources that would be officially quotable.

Immigrants with HIV shouldn't be thrown to the wolves
Vancouver Sun
Published: Friday, May 26, 2006
Over the past 20 years, Canada has done a lot to arrest the HIV/AIDS
epidemic. But according to a recent study led by former Immigration Canada
official Douglas MacPherson, we're missing a golden opportunity to prevent
and treat HIV infection among new arrivals.

The study published in Emerging Infectious Diseases, the journal of the U.S.
Centers for Disease Control, assessed the number of children with HIV who
entered Canada as refugees or under family class immigration applications
between 2002 and 2005.

MacPherson and his colleagues found that 36 immigrant children (33 of whom
were eligible to come to Canada) during that time were infected with HIV.
That translates to 14 child HIV cases per 100,000 immigrants, compared with
the Canadian rate of child HIV infection of only 0.02 per 100,000.

The reasons for the high rate of immigrant child infection is clear enough:
Since many refugees come from countries with high rates of HIV, it's
inevitable that they will experience higher rates of infection than the
Canadian population as a whole.

However, that doesn't, and shouldn't, mean that HIV-positive refugees are
inadmissable to Canada. While the Immigration and Refugee Protection
Regulations do allow the government to declare inadmissable immigrants whose
medical conditions might cause excessive demand on health services, those
provisions don't apply to refugees or to people entering Canada under family
class applications.

The exemptions for refugees and family applicants are, of course, a product
of our belief that the benefits of keeping families together and providing
protection to refugees outweigh the burden ill immigrants might place on the
health-care system.

But according to MacPherson's study, immigrants' needs and the needs of the
health-care system need not be at odds with each other. Indeed, by providing
appropriate medical care to recent refugees and immigrants, we can prevent
some HIV infections, thereby saving the system significant amounts of money
and saving the immigrants a lot more hardship.

MacPherson notes that pregnant, HIV-positive women, in particular, could
benefit from early medical intervention. Strategies to prevent
mother-to-child HIV transmission -- including risk behaviour counselling and
the provision of antiviral treatments -- already exist in Canada, but many
recent immigrant women are not accessing them.

There are no doubt many reasons for this, including a lack of culturally and
linguistically accessible health- care programs, and the women's lack of
knowledge of the system. But since all adult immigrants are now required to
take an HIV antibody test, they do have some contact with the system, and so
it's incumbent upon us to guide them toward care if they have specific
needs.

After all, there's little point in testing people if we're just going to
throw them to the wolves after they receive their test results. As a matter
of compassion, and out of concern for the future of our health-care system,
it's time to ensure the system works as well for immigrants and refugees as
it does for every other Canadian.

our chains with your online-persona of an intolerable Anti-Christian,
Anti-America
rants?

The internet is a fickled medium to be sure. Especially when we can
"pretend" to be anything we want without fear of real-life
repercusssions.

I have the feeling that if we were to sit in the same room you might
sing a different song.

Playing the victim, eh? Is that really you or your on line persona?

Arclight Paul G I thought you dropped in a few days ago to look down on
everybody!  Don't go spouting off like you represent Christians again, you
weenie.  Fartlight and Codster take your crap offline.  Doug

I'm not angry.

Don't you?

Again, I'm not angry. That's your interpretation.

I think that misleading religions and philosophies are the reason for
the poor state of affairs in the world today. This is not a vendetta but
my concern for the planet I live on.

No, my name is Cody and I have no Usenet or on line persona.

Yeah, I might convince you to leave Christianity.

Thanks for your response Cody. I appreciate the answers bereft of
confrontation.

I think that if we were to sit in the same room, I might convince you
that I'm not a
self-righteous pious pain-in-the-butt you make me out to be.
And that not "all" Christians are alike.

But I have no fear of you re-converting me so to speak. Obviously this
forum wouldn't appreciate
me telling you why I have no fear of that.
But anyway........

Take it for what its worth, I do "hope" the best for you and your
family.
And no, I didn't just say that because its the "christian" thing to
say.

Take Care.

I've been really tempted to jump back in the fray, for reasons of cheap
personal gratification of course, but have instead shoved a sock in my
mouth and tied my arms behind my back.  If it gets REALLY bad, I may
have to hide the keyboard.  :-)

actually I believe that emigrate means leave some where (ie: USA) and
immigrate means arrive some where. (CDA)  so if your not arrived your still
some where anyway.  oto as a cndn native son, Neil Young still sings: Every
body knows this is no where.

Yes, that's true.  If you adopt me, can I be a Canadian too?  I don't
want to stop anywheres short of full citizenship.

Health and Welfare Dr.s are the ones who make the decision if you are
medically inadmissible.  One can have serious illnesses and still pass
meds.  A simple email to them would give you your answer.

Hmmm... are you sure that you even have to disclose your HCV status? The
medical tests done for my immigration into the US never checked HCV,
only HIV, Tuberculosis, Syphilis, and other easily communicable
diseases. But once you start asking, the bureaucrats might get bad
ideas. This might be a case of a legitimate don't ask, don't tell
policy.

That's my guess. But I'd hate to waste the application fees ($550 each)
for my wife and me, just to be turned down. Not to mention all the time
and emotional investment. Thanks.
