Je suis au Quebec en tant que travailleur temporaire. Quand on vient au
Quebec en tant que resident temporaire (travailleur ou etudiant), on a
besoin d'un visa canadien (permis de travail ou permis d'etudier) et d'un
Certificat d'Acceptation du Quebec. Ce dernier sert a obtenir le premier (au
moins en theorie) et aussi la Carte Soleil (ca pas seulement en theorie).

Mon contrat de travail etait de 15 mois; j'entame mon dernier mois. Mais
meme si mon visa de travail canadien a ete fait pour 15 mois, comme un CAQ
ne peut etre etabli au maximum que pour 14 mois (ne demandez pas pourquoi),
il fallait que je le fasse renouveler. Comme on me l'a conseille a mon arrivee
au Quebec, je m'y suis pris debut octobre : il faut un rendez-vous.

Heureusement que je suis travailleur et pas etudiant : j'ai eu un rendez-vous
pour aujourd'hui. (Ma blonde qui est etudiante a appele le meme jour que moi
et n'a eu un rendez-vous que le 20 novembre -- on part le 27. Ca l'a obligee
a prendre une assurance privee car sans CAQ, pas de Carte Soleil.) Pour
resumer, j'y suis alle dix minutes avant l'heure de mon rendez-vous, j'ai
attendu 1/2 h avant d'etre transfere dans une autre salle d'attente. Apres
une heure supplementaire d'attente, j'etais sur le point de partir quand on
m'a appele. La madame m'a dit avec le calme et la douceur quebecoise (*) que je
n'avais pas besoin de CAQ car les lois avaient change recemment.

Je lui ai demande confirmation de ce qu'elle venait de dire, je me suis
bien fait expliquer la chose, et je crie aujourd'hui :

    SI VOUS ETES TRAVAILLEUR TEMPORAIRE, N'ALLEZ PAS FAIRE RENOUVELER
               VOTRE CERTIFICAT D'ACCEPTATION DU QUEBEC.

Le permis de travail peut etre renouvele simplement en montrant votre
contrat de travail ou une lettre de votre employeur. La Carte Soleil vous
sera accordee simplement en montrant votre permis de travail.

Si vous doutez, que vous n'avez pas compris ce que je veux dire, ou que
vous avez une question a me poser, n'hesitez pas a m'ecrire. Je ne promets
pas la lune, mais si vous pouvez eviter d'aller foutre en l'air 5 heures
de votre vie, je serai heureux d'y avoir contribue.

Bruno.

(*) Ce n'est pas ironique, je suis sincere et je confirme : les Quebecois
sont generalement cool et sympa. En l'occurrence c'est le systeme qui deconne.

Some of the FOX shows (I won't debate "better") are there, but not enough.
Where's Parker Lewis Can't Lose and Roc?  More importantly (for me):
where are all the new Warner cartoons (Batman, Tiny Toons, Taz-Mania, the
upcoming Animaniacs).  We're only getting a fraction.

Restaurants have smoking and non-smoking sections unless the restaurant
is specifically noted as being a non-smoking restaurant.  Restaurants
will be listed in multiple categories; if you think a restaurant is not
listed properly, let us know.  

***************************************************************************
How to vote:  Do a (R)eply from nn or rn, using the capital "R" to quote
the message.  The address should be "restrant@techbook.com". For each 
restaurant you want to rate, put a number between 0 and 4 (0,1,2,3,4) 
inside the bracket next to the restaurant's name.  The number followed 
followed by the colon is the restaurant's number in our database.  If you 
don't want to vote for a restaurant, leave it blank or delete the lines 
that refer to that restaurant.  The program looks for the START_BALLOT and 
END_BALLOT lines, so don't delete these lines.  

If you would like to make a comment about the restaurant, you have one line 
to describe the restaurant.  

If you would like to send suggestions or comments about the format of the 
listings, please put them at the start of your message.  The person quickly 
scans each message before turning it over to the program, so it's best to 
catch its attention as soon as possible.  

If everything works properly, you should get an automatic acknowledgement 
back from the program that reads the votes.  

Examples:

Jim's Home Cooking ABC: [0]
ABCO: [ Service was nasty, brutish, and took forever.  Food burnt black.]

Hi. 

I'm a newcomer from Japan. 
I'm looking for Japanese community or Japanese society around
Portland or Beaverton.

I completely have no idea. I welcome any information.
I have Japanese environment on my Workstation, so I can read a message
written in Japanese.

Thanks in advance.
