Another question for the Canadians

[inulro]

How bad is it if you lose your Social Insurance Number card?

I was all set to use it as my "document to support identity" and it's vanished off the face of the earth.

I found the ancient out of date Ontario Health card I always kept it with. I have a horrible feeling it got accidentally thrown in out a clean at some point.

More disturbingly, it means I have to send them my driving licence now.

This is precisely the sort of being useless that I hate which I referred to yesterday.

Edit: Found it! Phew. Breathing again.

I understand the problem - and I'm glad that you found it - I just don't think that you should be beating yourself up about having mislaid it! Anyway, you've found it now.

Is it really soon that you're going to be applying for jobs? It'll sound odd my saying that I'll be sad to see you go, as after all it's rare these days that I get to see you, but it's true nevertheless. Still, I'm happy for you. =:-)

Just because I'm applying for jobs, doesn't mean I'll get one.

None of this is happening soon, I'm just attempting to get my shit together so it can happen some time.

And I need to get my act together and get transport so that I can visit the Bristol Zoo you before you go. Does Jason need to get a job straight away too, or could you manage with just one of you working to begin with? And what on earth will happen to all the animals?

I don't really know the answer to any of that yet - once I get through passport hell I'll work myself up to talking to Immigration. As to the animals, we'll have to see how many are left when we finally go.
