read again it is not 1000,it is 250, as a Russian i pay the same amount to get emirati visa,so what make canada special ? i hope all nationalities will have to pay,why us only?

when you go to get that canadian visa you pay money and answer all kind of stupid questions, so what make Canada or west so special ? i suggest you do some travelling and go see how people are waiting for a visa to canada or west in middle east and afrika.
