More thoughts:
Chantal was obviously nervous as hell when coming through the customs where they asked “ invasive questions”. AKA…they were doing their normal job, being un-accusatory and she was nervous anyway.
She was upset that they asked “where she was and what was she doing”….She was upset/nervous. She replies “I told them I was in Kuwait to see my fiancé (slip….she corrects later!). We met on tinder.
So.
Youre not that upset at ’invasive’ questions (they aren’t, but nm) if you’ve nothing to hide. in Fact with her ego, she would have thrilled to get to say..”I went to get married to my husband….see, someone wants me!!!”
Therefore….
Chantal rocked up at the Border police, essentially, WITHOUT A RING and says she was there to see a boyfriend/finance (SLIP, GUYS)….and doesn’t mention that they wanted to see her very, very private marriage certificate. She‘d have complained about that. She wasn’t asked for it.
The statement that she was careful not to make was “I went there to marry my fiancé”. She didn’t say it becuase it would have led to her being question and evidence of up to shady things….like pretend/ temporary marriages.
Conclusion.
She isn’t even trying to pretend to any Canadian authorities that shes married to this Syrian man. We will need to see what visas she thinks she needs to return. If she’s returning to see a husband, she’ll get a visitors visa, seeing family. If she gets another tousist visa, she has to prove accommodations. She’ll lie, but watch for slips. She always gives herself away by wording/ phrasing.
What’s her end game? Maybe she’s dumb enough to think that she can get Salah over to. Canada somehow. Her childish brain might be going “I want it so I’ll get it”. It’s how she thinks.
or.
She is still playing Salad along becuase she knows he’s not coming to Canada, ever…..which is why she’s preparing to up-sticks, get rid of the cats and hopes to spend time with him in the ME. That way, she’s never technically lying to him when she promises him they’ll be together. By his words lately, he’s thinking Canada. She’s planning to leave her mess and debts behind and hide in Kuwait.
