I read it three to four times. They repeatedly were discussing to welcome newcomers and more importantly International Students and help them settle down there.
Nowhere there is anything mentioned about halting FSWs or prioritizing CECs. This sudden meeting after a long time and that too to start welcoming newcomers (although it highlights international students more) somewhere tells me that they will be back with FSW draws.
They have paused it for nearly 5 months and I really really do not think CEC specific draws will continue.
The next draw will probably be an FSW and the ones after that should also be FSWs
Cos, unofficially it is being said (by IRCC and CIC) that 'All programs' draw will be back in full swing by Summer and Summer ends by August (if I'm not wrong).
They are also quite well known for exceeding their targets (keeping in mind of the 10 to 20 % or overall ITAs declined, rejected applications) and this 2020 might see an increased ITAs than proposed
There is no good reason to conduct this meeting other than welcoming outsiders and students particularly. If they are gonna start to welcome students or even if they are gonna resume the applications of students, obviously All program draws will resume. Remember, FSW is one of their highly successful assets and I really do not think they will stop this for sure.
Anyways, let us wait and watch. Let us not jump into any conclusion.
Only IRCC, Mendocino, Trudeau, and his ministers will be aware.
Be hopeful. Canada is one of the kind-hearted nations and I believe it will for sure do favor outlanders who are really exhausted of all these
Even this Tuesday's (29 July) maintenance hints me that there might be an FSW draw on that date (I may be wrong as well but..)
Also, have a look at this para
"Ministers committed to advancing shared immigration priorities and enhancing Canada’s immigration policies and programs by endorsing the Federal-Provincial-Territorial Strategic Plan for Immigration 2020-2023. This plan sets out a vision for immigration, highlighting how newcomers contribute to building vibrant communities and an inclusive and prosperous Canada, supported by a robust and responsive immigration system. "
The "Federal-Provincial-Territorial Strategic Plan" includes Federal program (FSW), PNP, and Municipal programs (as far as I perceive) and there's not even 1 point talking about long term CEC or Canadian Experience Specific Draws. Then why there is so much fear and uncertainty?
So let us wait and see what happens.
God, Queen, and Trudeau save us.
