The problem is there are people taking vacations to different countries and being reckless, there's a youtube channel i like to follow of a couple who immigrated to Toronto recently. Next thing you know, in the middle of the pandemic and lockdown restrictions they're travelling to Aruba on holiday....it's ridiculous.

I always said this, people in Canada have been criticising politicians for going on vacation to the Caribbean, and so on, but if everyone else is allowed to travel and incurring no deterrent then all that hand wringing rings hollow, because everyone is doing it.

This will at least stop these even worse variants from coming to these shores.

Well they will spend the YT money somewhere :D plus helps with views.

But yeah it is ridiculous that people are not willing to be little disciplined. The pandemic has shown that humans are selfish beings. And would always put their own interest before collective good.

Yes, you totally right but Aruba is a small country and people who live there are depended from tourism, thus people who travel there help them to be economically stable.

Aruba looks legitimately gorgeous lol.

Yes exactly, who doesn't want to get away from the snow and wind chill for a nice vacation in the Caribbean, but we're not doing that because there's a raging pandemic right now, and it's crucial to keep numbers down especially with the delays associated with the vaccine's delivery.

Sure, but at this point in time, we have to be thinking more about the current health crisis and not as much about the economics of tourist hotspots.

When this pandemic has passed, please by all means, let's all go island-hopping in the Caribbean especially when it's freezing cold here.

Its actually funny you mention Aruba. I actually am from Aruba and I'm hoping to emigrate to Canada. The situation here is terrible, made worse by the incompetence of our government. That being said, Aruba is indeed a beautiful island. Shame that politicians have ruined it.

I'm done. :) Currently in TO, trying to cook for myself and looking for a job.
That is amazing! I'm currently sitting at a CRS of 465, NOC 1111. Was hoping for the cutoff to drop to that score and or OINP as its one of the targeted NOCS but these new covid restrictions/immigration draw restrictions are frustrating.

Well well, a fellow accountant. :)

Problem is the CEC only draws, if they were all program draws, it would have probably dropped to around that after the b2b draw. Now it will shoot up because the FSW candidates are accumulating in the pool.

Keep looking at OINP but yeah, the mood here is pretty dour at the moment, not sure they will be providing invites soon.

I am also NOC 1111. Was on CRS 466 for quite awhile ..but thanks to OINP...I received nomination in December last year.


For you, I hope birthday isn't too near. I am afraid the current halt on all programs draws would result in higher cut offs even for OINP draws as those are also affected by the crs trend in the pool.
