It’s not like I forgot about this, I just forgot to mention it:

Ben is allowed to live in Canada. All he has to do is get his passport stamped with a Visa at the Seattle consulate, and then show up at the border to be allowed in. He’ll get his Permanent Residence card, we’ll apply for a SIN for him, and once he has proof of having applied for one he can look for work.
WE ARE HAPPY!

Woot and yay!
