Don't worry my friend! sooner or later, we all will make it through within this year. That is for sure. I read somewhere (don't remember so, no references available) that as per Canadian government, their optimal number of population is 300million or more. According to them (again, no reference, just memory), that's when Canada will be on the moon functioning with full thrust. As of 2016, they are 35million.I am in the hunt for Canadian PR for more than 3 years now. I was very naive for most part. Since joining this forum, things have never been so clear. Hence, even if the draw does not happens tonight, it's not going to impact at all. So not going to be devastated at all.
I check a video on youtube from experts after November changes. They were three women, 2 interviewees were professional immigration layer. One of them boldly claimed that the current government wants to take the population of Canada to 100 million by the end of 2100. So now there are only 48-52 K applicants, approx, at the moment in the pool. So given that most of the things that lady predicted either came true and bettered her prediction, for example, she claimed, CRS will settle between 425-430 and now here we are at 415. You can expect better days ahead for guys like us, you know what i mean, below 400, although 15 points incoming in couple of weeks time
You are much more senior than me. I came to know about Canada and their immigration program last year.
