Cape Breton: Canada Doesn and Wife Christina

cape breton: In all the correspondence we had with Citizenship and Immigration Canada age was a factor, said John Hylas Smith, according to The Chronicle Herald. When I went online in 2005 and looked at the applications, there is a scorecard and after 50 years of age they start subtracting points. But Canada doesn't because they're too old. But despite being 58 years old at the time, Smith, like his wife Christina, was not one to be deterred. After attending a Natalie Mac Master concert in California, the music enthusiasts travelled to Cape Breton and decided this was where they wanted to live. He, a senior manufacturing engineer for an aerospace company working on the International Space Station, and she, a senior vice-president for Warner Brothers, were a couple that had spent their lives getting things done.
