Europe locking down again due to the fifth wave. Almost time for Canada to close its border again.
Canada's situation seems quite okay in regards to covid. I don't think they will enter new lockdown or close borders. That's because they are being quite strict on vaccination requirements for travel even within the country.

You never know! They only lifted travel restrictions when the threat levels went down.

Soon, vaccinated means two dose + booster. We are back to square one again!

I think vaccinated already means 2x shots / year. Pharmaceutical money lords released covid19. I'd never even dream about having to "subscribe" for health; but here we are.

Even needing 2 boosters a year. It would be far from square one. Back then was large number of cases, low vaccine supply, needing to vaccinate everyone with 2 shots in 1 month period. Now it’s much easier to get supplies since the US hardly has demand, and it’s only 1 shot every 6 months.

I had to book an international flight recently. Almost all of the flights require RT-PCR test to fly which cost $300/test.

Covid has been money printing machine for healthcare companies.

Tomorrow the mandate should be out isn't it?
A lot of BS will be over tomorrow whether the outcome is good or bad.

Probably
A lot of BS will be over tomorrow whether the outcome is good or bad.
A lot of new BS will be starting once the mandate letters are published

I suggest they do 5,000 once monthly all program draws and try to process those within 6-9 months depending on the stream and at the same time work on the backlogs (especially those that are finalized or close to being finalized). They should use a significant portion of the backlogs to meet targets in Q1 to Q2 and new applications for Q3-Q4. When the backlog is manageable they can resume biweekly draws
First clearing the backlogs should be their priority. I don’t think no class specific draws will be back anytime soon.

It's okay to reduce the target for a year to catch up. It will also be to their benefit, because they can draw higher scoring candidates in future draws, as opposed to scraping the bottom of the barrel of CEC draws, with candidates who barely have a decent score.
They WANT lower scoring candidates. They have indicated that multiple times. They think they need more low skill candidates for whatever reason.

I have no issues with target specific draws to fill specific needs. We need people working everywhere to enable us degens to talk shit on the internet.

My issue is them conflating low scores with "low skill" jobs.

"Low skill" jobs = jobs necessary to keep society running smoothly, even if those jobs don't have a high bar for education etc. These people deserve respect and dignity, and we have no basis to talk shit about them.

Low scores = dumbfucks who can't speak one coherent sentence in english and go to Canada to get a meaningless PG diploma to artificially boost their scores.
