Anytime I get something at Siber, it usually takes them about a week before they initiate a merge request...
The whole CIRA thing makes .ca's very annoying to deal with. I have to be honest that i am somewhat confused by the whole thing. I've won names at sibername and haven't done anything with them. made payment of course but the names still show the default info on the whois, not mine and this is months later.Sibername goes through two steps. The first temp tbr status has their name servers on. Once paid for the domain automatically reverts to the N/S specified by the client account.
The transfer takes place once they hit the transfer button and the client accepts at CIRA. Sometimes they are a little slow at intiating the transfers.
But the client is getting all the traffic.
Not to worry; the company I work for now secured garden.ca on behalf of a client. They did pay $7500 but were willing to go higher if necessary. It seems sibername wanted a payment via wire transfer (not sure why?) but that is what is holding up the change to the admin and tech contacts.
As for parking vs developing, very few of our clients are "monetizers", most are end users or investors who buy domains like "stock".
Cheers,

Also names i've won at pool i've transfered to CIRA but haven't transfered out..do i risk losing the domains by doing this?
Sudesh, I would say it's more cute than suspicious! Let me know if you would like your own @xxxxxxx.ca email? I can arrange it for you! or perhaps @oooooo.ca, just in time for Halloween
