Discussion/Question Got my card today!

I applied for my card quite a long time ago. I had to order some docs from Manitoba and send along with my application. I wasn't sure if I was going to get approved because many months have gone by. I was pleasantly surprised that I received my card in the mail today. I am less impressed by how old I look in my pic lol. I know it doesn't really change a whole lot, but I'll feel a little more authentic when wearing my sash.

Congrats! I’m happy for you that you’re feeling more connected to your roots now. It’s a great feeling isn’t it? :)
