I would like to think of it this way, now that they may have exhausted all CEC options they are trying to come up with new strategies to accommodate inland applicants. So probably they will process all inland applications including FSW. Remember that all inland applications are either in Sydney, NS, Ottawa or Montreal (FSW outland applications are sent to respective local offices). So now that CEC is not the only prioritized stream they may pay attention to FSW-inland applications too.
I would certainly think of this as a more positive news!
