This article says that there will be a seperate stream for intl students with 5,000 CAP and I think that is the right way to go. And also Intl students and canadian unis also wants seperate stream for intl students rather than picking them from same pool.

A Liberal government will make family reunification one of its core immigration priorities, because when families are able to stay together., their integration to Canada and ability to work and grow their communities all improve.
The higher your level of education, the higher bonus points.Alexios07 said:
Job offer is a different thing and you will already get bonus points again for as it need not be permanent anymore.
Job offer should be excluded as there would be abuse, many students who has master or professional degrees in NOC A might engage in NOC inferior to their occupation in order to get more points, as for many NOC A jobs, only Canadian/PR residents are eligible to apply.
They said additional points rather than bonus points for siblings. So it might be 600 for Canadian siblings.
@Fatani, First of all I have a question for you, It seems like that you are applying as an FSW, that is why you started the thread and had been talking about Injustice, you are not in Canada yet and already against the Decisions of the government, god knows what will you do once you will get the PR and are here,fatani said:
You or me doesn't have the purview to what their long term goals are, which I am sure they will share before or with the proposed changes.
Also to answer few of your questions, International student have worked very hard (I really wanted to write something else here but this is not the right place to use that language), first to complete the Programs with the part time Odd Jobs, and then to get a co-op (People don't need you even for free if you do not have the Canadian experience), and then to find a job which in itself is a BIG challenge, and you think that FSW's after landing will get the Job in just couple of days
Then paying heavy taxes (Which is to be paid and we all agreed to it not that someone kept a gun on our head and made us do that) Meeting new people, making contacts, and working to know the Canadian culture better (One of the best culture I have seen).
All these things NOT in the Comfort of our home with our families back in our home countries (FSW's are still there and have that leverage).
Also, your another question is about SIBLINGS, I think Sibling's in this context here is your brother and sisters (Blood relation) not the daughter of your mother's uncle (just on the lighter note, I have aunt here living in canada who is the daughter of my mother's uncle)
In order to give more points for Siblings I think it is a good sign as I have personally seen so many people who Land here and leave within few months as they are unable to find a proper job, which they can definitely do if they have someone to handhold them and show them the path (which really helps, and can be done by siblings) I have personally done the same when my elder brother landed here last year and within 2 months he got a good government job (Managerial Level), as I shared all that I know of how to apply for jobs and what all websites to look at for job opening, also it is not hard to look for that information online, But when it comes to get the support it really matters, Me & my wife were already here in Canada when he came, so he never had to worry about the accommodation, Food lodging, or anything. He invested his time majorly in finding a job for himself (Trust me he had 2 Jobs at the End of the 2nd month and he decided which one to go for).
I am not saying that all Siblings will do the same, or all of the new landed immigrants will be lucky to get a chance to choose between multiple jobs and that too within 2 months, however a little help can be of great use when you are in the new country, and have to do multiple things on your own by which you can only give divided attention to most important things.
That's why I wrote that you only get bonus points for job offer only if your salary is market rate, or better yet, give points to annual income as well too. Maximum 50 points if your salary is more than $100k/year, 0 points if you earn less than $25k/year.Elrud said:
Again, this is an economic immigration program, the purpose is to find the best candidate who will pay the most taxes and use the least welfare, so if we award 600pts for some applicants just because they have Canadian siblings, then it would be even worst than the spouse sponsorship program.
