I am almost in the same boat lol also Alberta. Almost exactly two weeks since issue and nothing. I have absolutely no idea how it could possibly take two weeks to mail something intra-province.

After almost 5 months of waiting I think I will legitimately die of shock if somehow this thing ever actually shows up one day haha

I submitted my application back in February I sent an email to the CFO so if I get anything back ill post an update as you are probably going to be in the same boat

Okay thanks. I am not too worried, everything has been approved and whatnot so it’s not even in there hands anymore. If it doesn’t show up by Wednesday (2 weeks) I’ll give ‘em a call myself but of course with these things any info is always helpful.
