This embassy, like most if not all Canadian embassies, are tax draining monstrosities. They offer little in the way of services. Want a Criminal background check from home? You'll be doing all the foot work and paying hundreds of dollars. Want a new passport? 260$ please. Want to apply for a simple spousal visa? you'll be waiting 2.5 + years for these bureaucratic sloths to look at it.

The only people who like this place are the people who work there, and I can't say I blame them. Higher wages than the average New Yorker great benefits, double holidays (USA and Canada), and you are answerable to no clients. If I could, I would work there in a heartbeat.
