Tim was sworn in during citizenship week so the ceremony was held at the CBC news radio station. We had to wait outside til they were ready for us. We were then brought in groups of 10. It was very odd but in the end everyone made it inside and Tim recieved his citizenship test.
The ceremony was very nice. A judge and a rude politician spoke. They were then sworn in. They had to say the oat in English and French. Let's just that the French was less than pretty and just sounded like mumbles. They then walked across the stage and received their citizenship! It was so exciting. I was a little sad because Mayor Nenshi couldn't make it but all in all the ceremony was a success.
Congratulations Tim! I am so proud of you for becoming a Canadian citizen. I look forward to the future and never letting your Wright family forget that you stuck here forever now!
