Probably the assumption is that you want to get GC in USA. A Canadian citizenship doesn't help with that for India born folks.

Yes, I know that. I would say it is a bad idea to move to US (as an Indian) if someone is thinking of going to US on an H1b with an aim to get an GC. One should use 4 years in Canada to work hard in an US based company and make the move when they are eligible for L1A and you get your green card via EB1 which is quick. If one wants to make money, then move to US on an TN visa or L1B and then come back to Canada when you are rich enough to buy an house. I would never move to US on an H1B....!!!!

Lot of US based companies offer US or Canada option for many remote Tech Roles. If someone is in Tech (ignore if you have an Lambda type PGDM's), I would suggest them to apply to those US based jobs and ask for Canada as preferred location. End of the skill matters for US jobs. If you have the right skillset, US companies will not ignore you.

It looks like the whole assumption about CEC candidates having lower scores is wrong.

There is no Assumption. Majority of CEC are filled with low skilled PGDM's. At they same time, there are good CEC candidates who have a Masters/PhD's along with work experience and high language scores.

Masochist wow, never saw it that way but okay

Well, I also think that anyone who aspires to live in America is a sucker for punishment and/or hates living. So maybe they don't derive sexual gratification from it but they certainly do enjoy self-inflicted pain, suffering and humiliation .

The drop only matters if you have the pocket money to buy cash. If you need a mortgage, the amount reducing does not offset the extra interest.

What IS wrong is that CEC having *high* score (with an advantage over FSW ofc) and crying for no CEC specific draws at the same time.

Yes, but the whining is due to the perception that high scoring candidates are FSW. While there seems to be more CEC at 500+ scores (at least those high ones). A CEC only draw would not bring down scores much, if at all. The idea behind urging for a CEC draw is that CEC candidates are disadvantaged. This is proven untrue. Their main competitors are other CEC candidates, not FSWs. A CEC-only draw would hurt FSW candidates but would not help lower scoring CECs.

I can see an argument for a FSW+CEC only draw (no PNPs), because PNPs are taking a lot of spots at the moment, though I didn't see many people asking for that one. But there is zero logic for CEC only draw. The only reason is work permits expiring, but that should be handled outside of EE draws. (It is handled poorly, but that's another thing).

It is debatable, but I am of the opinion that immigrants are a net good for a developed country. The way Canada is doing it though, it's a net bad. There is no incentive to actually live in Canada. People will just use it as a clean retirement home when the time comes. Why? Well they never addressed what made immigration necessary in the first place. It is prohibitively expensive to raise kids. the housing bubble is ridiculous. Goods and services are far more expensive than what they are worth. Simple things like internet and cell phone plans are among the most expensive (and also the slowest) in the developed world. The leading conservative party nominee jerks off to Trump at night, and the liberal party leader is an absolute moron who appoints imbeciles to slowly chip away at democratic rights. As a country, Canada is screwed long term, and immigrants pretending otherwise won't help.

Man you aren’t aware where people immigrate FROM.. places that are screwed short term, without a long term to screw at all.

Try to solve Canada’s problems and your efforts may be futile. Try to solve some other country’s problems and you end up in jail or at the coroner.
