Of course, it is not fair!
For us, outlanders, sure, we cannot travel due to this pandemic, but such a long waiting can also change everyone's life and career plan. for IRCC, we are just numbers, their work.
But we have our dreams, our family, our career. Has IRCC ever cared? no.
For people who submitted docs in 2019 or the first half of 2020, we, really deserve to be processed first.
If IRCC can let the new applicants cut our line (which is happening), I have to say, it is hard to expect too much justice and fairness in Canada.
At least for me, I have changed my mind, I do not fantasize about Canada as a dream country anymore. Instead, immigration is more like a trade now, I need something from Canada, and Canada needs my labor force and talent, fine, let's talk about it.
