God bless you JUBEAR!!!!!
I am really impressed by the recent developments in the forum. I was actually worried about how scared most of were in the forum to confront the situation. This issue is bigger than we know and has more far reaching consequences. I personally have been having a disturbing symptom for the past 5 days and I cant do much about it because my medical insurance is expired , I have no income and cant get affordable healthcare. I have been really scared and even afraid to sleep at times for fear of an emergency. What if something happens during this 5 Month wait?? Does the CIC consider this at all. Most of us left our homelands to contribute immensely to the country from science to art to the humanities and we get treated this way. How does the CIC expect students without income and any form of insurance at all to survive..
I suggest we apply a very intelligent approach towards the processing of these applications. Twitter is very important in these kind of protests. So are petition websites like Change.org . We simply state our case openly and outline the struggles we go through on daily basis while waiting for the absurd processing times. i don't know if this would help but a strong point could also be stating that the irony of the situation is that these exact documents take less than 2 hours to process at the border ( if this doesn't jeopardize the flagpoling route) so why does it take 5 months when applied directly to CIC.
About using emails to CBC/gopulic, I don't know the process but maybe more suggestions would shed more light on the issue.
