I am considering moving to Canada next year after my 21st birthday. I want to become a permanent Canadian citizen. But I am in school for CNA. I am wondering if I could use my CNA license in Canada without having to take the class all over again. Also, what are the ghetto/slum parts of Canada (the parts I'm trying to stay away from), the average cost of a one bedroom studio/monthly rent.

Thanks.



Answer
A US CNA license is only valid in the US.
In Canada, you'd have to be licensed whichever Canadian Province or Territory you settle in.
And any other Province or Territory if you end up moving around from one to another.

The following is a lengthy but informative quote I found for you from a forum for nurses:

"Health care in Canada is a federally regulated, provincially administered responsibility; each province has its own rules, methods and goals. obtaining a license in one province does not automatically entitle you to one in another. Our colleges of nursing don't care one bit if you've passed the nclex, because it doesn't mean anything in canada. to be a Canadian registered nurse or licensed practical nurse, you have to pass the Canadian registered nurse exam (crne) or the Canadian licensed practical nurse exam (clpne). studying for the nclex then writing the crne isn't wise, because the exams are very different... if you're coming to Canada, do it Canada's way.

Canada's health care system is a high-tech environment and the scope of practice for nurses is very broad. We nurses do a lot of things here that aren't even taught to nurses in other countries. If your education is assessed and found lacking, it's because you won't have the necessary skills to function independently in our environment.

Several provinces and all three territories are now utilizing alberta's substantially equivalent competence (sec) assessment in cases where there are concerns regarding the suitability of an individual's education or experience.This assessment will highlight any shortfalls and ensure that applicants meet the minimum standards to which all nurses are held...

"When a province assesses an ien's education, it compares it to that of a new graduate from a local nursing program. Everyone is held to the same standard, and the bar is set fairly high. We're proud of our health care here, and want to be sure that providers are competent to function at the same level as a locally educated person. It's nothing personal."

As for ghettos/slums, Canada doesn't actually have much that's comparable with US ones.
Places we think of as "the hood" are ordinary middle-class neighbourhoods by US standards.

Rent depends on location.
Vancouver's now the most expensive city in North America to call home.
Toronto is Canada's largest city, and rents vary wildly depending on which parts of the city a person wants to live in.
Towns tend to be cheaper, but ones near major cities aren't.
Best advice is to narrow your search to a specific Province or Territory and then look up rents in the various cities and towns to get a feel for what the costs are like.

What are some unusual, uncommon, yet thoughtful arguments against same-sex marriage?

I am writing my high school senior thesis on why there is no reason same-sex should be illegal. I've covered all the typical, common arguments against it in my antithesis, but I know there are a lot more out there that I would like to include. Thank you.

Liberals mock Republicans for claiming that we are on a moral "Slippery Slope," but let’s look at the facts.

Not long ago gays proclaimed: “It’s none of your business what I do in the bedroom! Why can't Republicans mind their own business?” But their gay “lifestyle” somehow left the bedroom and is today being taught to school children...as an “alternate lifestyle.”

Then “the slope” steepened:

-8/18/12 foxnews.com: California law barring parents from 'curing' gay children moves through legislature.

French gays have an even better idea:
-10/11/12 http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2012: Legislation that would legalize same-sex marriage and give homosexual couples the right to adopt children also would replace the terms “mother” and “father” with “parent 1” and “parent 2” in all legal documents, including birth certificates.

But why stop at “gay rights”?

-11/2/12 http://www.campusreform.org/blog/?ID=448… Evergreen State College in Washington State: A public school’s ‘non-discrimination policy’ allows Colleen Francis, a biological male who identifies as a woman, to use the women’s locker room and restrooms. According to the police report obtained by Campus Reform, the transgendered man in question, 45-year-old student Colleen Francis, was “sitting with her legs open with her male genitalia showing” with girls as young as six years old present.

-8/13/12 theblaze.com: Democrat Mary Gonzalez was the first lesbian to openly serve in the Texas House of Representatives, and now she’s becoming the first “pansexual,” too.
As Gonzalez defines it, apparently a “pansexual” is attracted to men, women, men who identify as women, women who identify as men, and everything in between....”

What’s next? Incest?

Woody Allen had an affair with his daughter-in-law. Morgan Freeman had an affair with his granddaughter-in-law.

How long will it be before Hollywood gifts us with a movie about this couple?
11/6/12 http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-557600/Father-daughter-baby-30-year-separation.html:
-A father and daughter confessed on television last night to spending seven years in a sexual relationship and conceiving two children.
-"John and I are in this relationship as consenting adults," Jenny told Australia's 60 Minutes programme last night.
-"We are just asking for a little bit of respect and understanding."

In a recent episode of the History Channel’s miniseries “Midwife” an elderly brother and sister lived together incestuously for decades. When the two died in each other’s arms -- he of cancer, she of suicide -- the head nun (yes, a nun) who supervised their last days eulogized: “It’s not who you love that’s important, it’s love itself that defines human beings.” It was a real tear jerker...yes, sir.

Oh, look! Here’s another lifestyle!

-2/26/12 http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/story/2012/02/26/bc-vancouver-bestiality.html CBC News, Canada: A Vancouver man is set to go to trial for bestiality, a charge that is rarely prosecuted in the courts. The SPCA alleges it has seized video of Brian Cutteridge, 38, engaged in sexual acts with his dog. Cutteridge has argued openly against bestiality laws and has written extensively about sexual relationships with animals. Two years ago he published a paper called For the Love of Dog: On the Legal Prohibition of Zoophilia in Canada and the United States. "He feels very strongly that that should be something that's legal," Moriarty said. "He feels those relationship with his dogs are equivalent to a marriage-type relationship...”

And another!
-1/3/13 http://m.guardian.co.uk/society/2013/jan/03/paedophilia-bringing-dark-desires-light:
“But there is a growing conviction, notably in Canada, that paedophilia should probably be classified as a distinct sexual orientation, like heterosexuality or homosexuality.”
-----------
“nihilism” defined:
-A doctrine holding that all values are baseless and that nothing can be known or communicated.
-The belief that destruction of existing political or social institutions is necessary for future improvement.
------
Footnote: Should gay couples have the same legal status as hetero couples? Absolutely, and they have those rights in most states. In fact, they have rights superior to us due to their federal minority status. They get quotas just like racial minorities. But that’s still not enough! Now they want to change the definition of marriage from a union of man and woman, a tradition embraced by all cultures, world wide, since written history. Man, you talk about in-your-face!
------
How did we get here?

It all started 20 years ago with: “It’s none of your business what I do in the bedroom! Why don’t you Republicans mind your own business?”
