Powereng,
I am sorry to hear that, but I think logically and morally, it shouldn't be as easier and straight like that.
Normally Minister would not intervene straight away, but giving you the opportunity to be rejected with a strong application in place.
Otherwise, the rest of the World would simply seek Ministerial intervention (And this process is not a part of visa processing, and if you look above on one of my messages - I told you that you will be more likely to be rejected, but make sure you are rejected with a strong application).
I suppose you were given the opportunity to apply for administrative review? Then, at this stage the minister can intervene (a very few applications are successfully).
Stay positive, one way or another you will make Quebec home (Yes, it is a little pain and unnecessary headache, but no pain no gain).
Cheers mate, do not give up!
