Alright, here's the story. I sent e-mails to my MP, MPP, the O.P.P., the Ombudsman and the Minister of public safety. The main topic of my e-mail was the different answers I was getting from various agents, and why some applications were processed much faster than others. I indicated that I understand the need for regulations and that I was in no hurry, and questioned these varied results and delays.
My MPP did nothing, didn't even acknowledge my e-mail.
The O.P.P. forwarded my inquiry to the CFO.
The Ombudsman phoned me and told me that he had contacted the CFO and that they were to send me an e-mail with their reply.
I had some communications with an officer from the CFO, with whom I gave a complete rundown of my story so far, all the details.
While at my MP's office, an assistant helped me, I believe they have a contact at the CFC. While the assistant was on the phone with them, they found my application in the pile, and said that they still needed the exam results from the CFO. She then contacted the CFO and they found my exam results, faxed it to my MP's office the next day, who then faxed it to the CFC.
Now my application was in progress. When it was sent back to the CFO I called to make sure there were no issues with it. A very nice lady there told me that the CFO had some quick questions to ask me. I asked if I could speak to them at that moment, and she cheerfully transferred me. I answered the questions and explained to the officer that I was in no particular hurry, but was wondering if my application would be approved. She then said yes, but my 28 day wait was still in progress (it will be 28 days tomorrow). She then told that me my card would be in the mail when the waiting period finished. I then expressed my gratitude for her assistance and got the hell off the phone before I had a chance to screw anything up.
