No updates from me and I live in Edmonton. I'm in my 23rd month since applying and was planning on calling CIC and requesting a meeting. Anyone have any tips on how ti approach the call center with such a request?

Hi, I've just started the process and here is my current timeline:
"We received your application for Canadian citizenship (grant of citizenship) on February 11, 2013.
We sent you a letter acknowledging receipt of your application(s), and a study book called Discover Canada on February 11, 2013. Please consider delays in mail delivery before contacting us.
We started processing your application on April 8, 2013."

I think now the most difficult part is started: waiting 12-24 months to hear back from them. Wish me luck and good luck to you all! :)

I had my test yesterday. Everything went great, no RQ so far. :)
We should get the oath invitation in about 2 months if everything goes smoothly. We were warned that if we fail the test, the waiting time for the judge interview is 2-2.5 years.
