Just to inform, you can get the Ontario Health card with your AIP letter, for 1 year form the letter date, in case it expires and you don't have your residence yet, just go back there again with the AIP letter and they will renew the Health card for you.

Agree that IRCC certainly made things worse. Not sure we can really blame them for Roxham road and global instability. Many of you may not have had the opportunity to claim asylum if IRCC had tightened policies so a bit hypocritical to criticize. How exactly is Canada providing you a safe place to live, work and study and a pathway to PR and citizenship punishing people?
You’re not in the right position to decide who is eligible or not. Most of these people have problems that make them seek protection from Canada, and it’s none of your business. If you have something useful to say, go ahead. If not, zip it. And just for your information, many people leave after gaining citizenship and go to Europe or the U.S., not exactly back to their origin.

Good afternoon, in your recommendations, which method is most efficient for processing my PR? I'm already a protected person, along with my family, and you tell me I can apply through the Permanent Residence Portal or send it by physical mail. What do you recommend?

You clearly don’t have knowledge of other immigration programs because wouldn’t call processing for most PR programs fast these days. Almost all categories have much longer processing times than they did a few years ago. Also typically takes much longer to get selected to apply for PR so process is not fast. If there is one targeted group being blamed for things like pressure on housing it is international students and not asylum seekers, refugees and protected people who are all different. If anything the cost of the asylum claim system and refugee support system is underreported because most Canadians would lose their mind if they were aware of the actual cost to taxpayers.
Whats your timeline canuck?

When did I ever say I get to decide who is eligible for asylum? That said IRCC is supposed to screen temporary residents applications for risk of asylum claims if they enter Canada. IRCC for a time was approving almost everyone for who applied to visit, work or study in Canada which primarily lead to this huge backlog while never having the capacity to process the applications.
