We have made minor adjustments to how the search bar works on ResetEra. You can read about the changes here.
I remember being a lurker on the other site and hearing Machado's tale was really something of a sad and desperate story.
Good to know things went well in the end.

Even having known a few of the updates to this saga already, reading the whole detailed story still made me tear up, not gonna lie.
I am so, so relieved and happy for you Machado. The CAQ's decision has been infuriating. I really wish you could have stayed in Québec, we would have loved to have you, but so long as you can build a new life for you and yours in Saskatoon, that's still wonderful. And, well, at one point I'm sure you'll be able to travel freely across Canada and can reside in Quebec like you always wanted, right? (I think? I don't really know how this stuff works...)
Bienvenue au Canada! And huge, huge thanks to Cilidra for his amazing work in helping this happen. You guys are the best.

Congratulations Machado!
That's some bullshit you had to deal with. Glad to hear you were able to get through despite all the hurdles.
For all that and starting a new life and the challenges that represents I feel like we should get you a house warming gift or something. If you were in Ontario I'd want to buy you a beer for sure.
Welcome to Canada! Sorry about the shitty parts you've already encountered.

Congrats, Machado! Such an inspiring story of perseverance and overcoming the odds. Your saga would make a great movie.
Congratulations! I remember your story from the old site, and had seen the updates here over the years. I was actually just wondering the other day if you and your family had already arrived.
I have a bunch of family that live in Saskatchewan, and I'd say that Saskatoon is definitely the nicest place to be in the province. It has almost everything you'd want from a huge city in Canada, in a much more manageable size. Lots of parks and greenery, especially by the river. And tons and tons of cool restaurants. Welcome to Canada!

Lots of great hockey in there. Whereever you end up...make sure you side with that local team.
That would be the Saskatoon Blades, if Machado's heading there. (Could have, once upon a time, been the Saskatoon Blues). Gordie Howe's ashes are buried outside the arena there, so I ought to make a visit up there some day in the future.
Very glad you and your family were finally able to make it to Canada, though, Machado! I hope your new life up north is wonderful :)
Also, reminder to visit at least one Tim Horton's and Canadian Tire when you can. Timbits are wonderful and I will hear no such slander about them.
(Yes, Canadian friends, there's not a whole lot super special about either but when you've never been to one, it's just a unique experience.)
