*5. The interface to the visa application web site / office is like a
black hole. There is no way you can even ask why your application is not
being responded even after 60 days. No telephone, no mail ID that can reply
to. The whole system seems to bea rude automation of some 19th century port
pass system.*
As someone who had to deal with Canadian Immigration for more than 2
yeas, I can say they are not so burocratic as Europe and USA, but not
even nearly as easy to deal as the Brazilian Immigration :).
Anyway, just to help you and eveyone else who wants to contact
immigration, here is the page:

And since this Wikimania is in Quebec, if for some reason you need to
talk with Immigration Quebec (not necessary for a tourist visa, but you
never know), here is their contact page:

Very tired and completely down with a vi
ral fever + an unexpected denial of an almost definitive temporary visa +
realization of loss of money.
To that miserable scenario, Ranjith's wrongly worded mail brought me some
good laughter as I get to open the mailbox.
Thank you Ranjith. :-)
Now few facts among the many:
1. I have a long travel history since 1992 running through Europe,
Americas and Middle East.
2. Well established reasons to show that I must / will get back to India
after this short visit.
3. I hold a US B1/B2 visa valid as on date.
4. There is a 'clickable' and identifiable hotel booking and travel
booking in my name.
5. The interface to the visa application web site / office is like a black
hole. There is no way you can even ask why your application is not being
responded even after 60 days. No telephone, no mail ID that can reply to.

Canada, for a whole lifetime, I always adored you! But now I feel sorry
for you!
