| Subject: Immigration and a disabled professional? |

Hi all, thankful to have found this forum as my situation is one for
the record books. I am a radio producer of long standing, I am also
Blind. When I first tried to enter canada from the states as a
business visitor, I was told in short that blind people cannot work
and even with my proof that I was as professional as I claimed, that
I was lying...and sent back. While I got in the second time, it was
not based on my business visitors request, and no visitors record was
created. Cic told me not to try leaving without something solid less
another officer decide to focus on my disability not my reasons for
being here. I applied to correct the problem and even with 50k in
resources, no one but me, and before my project wages, they still do
not understand I am a professional. as bad as this reads there is a
simple solution if I could find an immigration consultant, lawyer or
advocate willing to help me! in the Canadian foreign workers manual
there is a provision for documentaries of cultural /
social importance section c-10. I would qualify for this, and could
have the permit generated in a meeting...I need someone though to go
with me to that meeting though. Since technically I do not exist,
finding any help has been difficult since I have not been able to do
what I came for I cannot spend tons on a lawyer although one of my
contractors will pay within reason.Help! there must be someone I can
talk to who will go with me to this meeting for less than 2 thousand
dollars. Thanks everyone both for the help you give and the kindness
