If there's anyone to blame, its Trump. His anti immigrant policies and restrictions on H1-B visas have made people look at Canada as an alternative. Even americans themselves are going to Canada as immigrants.
people have always looked at Canada as an alternative even when Obama was in charge. The US has never been an easy country to migrate to, and Express Entry has proven to be the easiest way of legally migrating to a 1st world country.
The surge in scores is in my opinion merely due to the fact that those who are really interested have been preparing for this for at least a year, gaining work experience, education and improving their language skills, factors that contribute to a higher CRS score.

Yes that’s exactly what’s happening but there is a consistency this year, unlike 2017 .. in the last 3 or 4 draws , immigration was increasing ITAs but the pool was getting larger and larger until it started to become steady with the number of draws and ITAs ... ( 440-442)
I’m hoping it’s going to continue in the same pattern .. who knows maybe they’ll even bump it up to 4000 ITAs next year
