Called the Ontario CFO this morning. I actually had a couple of real questions, not the usual “how long? Speed me up!” Questions they have been fielding for a couple of months. Gist of the call was about once a private transfer is complete, how long do I have to go get it. The answer is that there is no time set in stone, just has to be reasonable. But the nice lady did say don’t leave it for a month, but a few days is not a problem. I did manage to give her my reference numbers (was hoping hoping hoping...) but alas, not yet done. I did ask her if they had any questions for me, but was told all appears in order. Now the good news - they are in every weekend now. And confirmed that they have hired contract positions. The nice lady I talked to is raking the OT and loving it. So things are moving along in Onterrible!
