this scares me.. scares me alot.. this application was eventually canceled due to the 2019 CSQ Cancelation. Read the old 2019 news article below.. they canceled a lot of applications as they had a large backlog and invitation system was changing(immigration needed to tie to the current labor market needs).. three things worry me..
1. FSW/EE is also expecting changes in the system and prioritization of NOC as per labor market needs
2. the current backlog is also huge (compared to the CSQ one)
3. the CSQ cancelation is a recent event(2019)
Don't mean to be a fear monger.. but I just can't throw out the possibility of cancelation of applications anymore like i used to. pls note that there are other factors involved with CSQ cancelation which does not apply to FSW(e.g FSW is already an electronic point based system etc). Not all doom n gloom but surely a concern.

I agree with most of your posts.
Especially the first point is aligned with the amendment proposed in the budget 2021 that is targeted at streamlining the express entry system by inviting people based on labour demand. It sounds like NOC based invitation similar to what Australia presently has (Occupation demand list).
Getting jealous of CEC candidates does not increase the chances of ITA for FSW Candidates. Even, election platforms of both major parties are in favour of CEC and international students. Hating CEC and international students will not help you.
Don't be mislead by askkubeir and others whose prediction does not help you in any way. They are doing business and want to keep the audience engaged for their benefit.
Constructive Suggestion to FSW Folks: Instead of draining energy somewhere, stay focussed on your goal, which is nothing but coming to Canada. If you are honest with your dream of becoming Canadian someday, it is better to put everything you have right now. If the situation allows, come to Canada to study and apply as CEC. If you are working in one of the occupations in demand (no list, one may do research), you should not be in a problem even if FSW criteria change in the future.
If someone wants help in filing a study visa or struggling with selecting a university or college in Canada, I will be more than happy to help (free of cost, no business).
Thanks for reading my post. I hope, it will add some value to this group.
