Makes sense. One thing came in my mind, there was a statement (I can't find link right now) that said "a portion of Provincial Nominee Programs". I wonder if in future they start to slow down on selecting Provincially Nominated candidates?

Thanks but no thanks!

Thanks for your input. But timelines here are quite time sensitive. Waiting for a few draws (2 months?), moving to another province and find a job (2-3 months), apply for PNP (3-5 months).
