Does it mean no changes for international students ?

or am I missing anything ?

Good call for posting this. I think it's just everything they expect to do outside of Express Entry and PNP. The comment at the bottom by the "Attorney David Cohen" says that neither of those are mentioned. But we already know that there's going to be changes in Express Entry, so I think that will be a news release by itself.

The whole thing is here

Thank you, JALT!

However, how can we be sure that all the forward plans are out of EE and PNP ? still hypothetical ?

I think there are too many "thinks" ;D

Whatever is mentioned in the plan is a long term plan that IRCC is going to follow, Express Entry & International Students is a ongoing process, they should be announcing changes this month or the next for sure.
 
I wish they can just do a few CEC specific draws to clear all the students out. :'(

Yeah, it does say in it as well that it can be updated.

Well we know McCallum is giving international students extra points at some point because he's openly said it in parliament
