I'll be in Dubia latest May. My Canuck Aquaintance there now for 3 years, is now the editor in chief for the Expat magazine in Dubai. I'll be bunking with her and her husband when I arrive so I would be very interested in meeting the fellow Canucks. Cheers, and I can't wait, I just saw pictures of t...

You won't do it again? Bullshit! This is the cycle of violence..you're no different than a guy who beats his wife. If this was vice versa, then people would be bashing the guy for hitting a woman. You know what...everyone deserves respect from the other and just b/c you're a woman doesn't give you t...

Are you drunk?

Since when does slapping justify a break. NO breaks given.

Let's reverse the roles....guy slaps girl.

Then what's your response. HP wake up.

This is a cycle of violence...brewing.

Gents and other Canucks, I'll be arriving in May and I've been networking with a few people here. Went and met a couple here last week, he was born there, she is CDN by birth and home. Anyways, once we roll out, which is sadly May 01, when it gets hot, we'll have a Canuck fest. I'll be living with a...

Hello All, OK, the other thing I need to mention is that I will be rooming for the first couple months during the job hunt with a CDN couple from Toronto, originally, but have been in Dubai for I think 3 or 4 yrs and the woman is the editor for Liberty Expat magazine which is, if I understand correc...

I was just checking an expat magazine online and it looks like they've tightened the visit visa time allowance from two months with 1 month renewable to 1 month non-renewable. This is going to make my life significantly harder. Basically, needing to find employment within the week I'm there. Yikes.....

Sorry not the week, but I'm assuming getting a residence visa is going to take a while. Any ideas? I can't believe how much harder this makes my decision to find work while I"m there. Wow..I have been going on the advice of many who have informed me that it's pretty easy to do for westerners. Can so...

Fayd and Arnie, I think I've just psyched myself out here by not understanding what non-renewable meant. I thought it meant 1 shot. But thanks F. and Arnie. I will just have to make a trip to Oman every 30 days then come back in. I'm new to this visa business and have never been to Dubai. Does this ...

TOTrev

Sorry Arnie, I should have been more clear. What I meant to say was an initial 2,000dhs fee for the sponsors to pay, I'm aware of my 500 dhs fee for extensions. Any ideas about the initial refundable 2,000 dhs? I wouldn't have a problems covering that, just trying to make it easy on those who are he...

TOTrev

See how green I am to this? Thanks Arnie. So it's basically thanks for coming to Dubai, oh you're CDN, come right in..water's warm. Stamp.... Carry on sir. The way they make it sound on that site is that someone has to apply to sponsor from Dubai for a proper visit visa, it has to be ready at the ai...

TOTrev

Thanks Dude, I'll give them a shout, and have a chat with them. I have people to stay with in Dubai..so all's well. Then get the employer to sponsor...you know the drill. I'll check the thread out. BTW...I owe you a pint when I arrive..so plan on that! Cheers, T PS. Arnie, I think your in the UK if ...

Fayz, Sadly, I'm still in TO. I'll be in Dubai on May 10th..just in time to catch the heat............eek! I'll let you know via email likely when I arrive. I've got things planned already..like a soccer match on the 11th then probably head out to scoot out the nightlife. Have fun at the show! I can...

Hey Guys, I'll be in Dubai via KLM through Amsterdam. They charged me an extra 20 dollars to stay in Amsterdam for 1 day. I took it. Now, I'm well aware of the laws about drugs in UAE, and I don't smoke them or do them, but you know the deal about Amsterdam and free everything. There is a good chanc...

TOTrev

Thanks Arnie,

NO big deal...since I don't smoke it..I may miss my plane to Dubai if I did..not good!

I have no problems with just consuming beer. I would prefer not to take the gamble at this point since I would like to get in without problems and get set up without problems.

Cheers,

TOTrev

Guys, I wanted to say thank you very much for all the help you've provided me since August of last year when I decided that I'm going to do this move to the beautiful middle east. Being a CDN and having some CDNs on here has helped me out. Things are all set-up and I am ready to go. I'm having a har...
