That's not a CIC website. Do you have an official statement link? It also states...

Previously, qualifying job offers supported by a Labour Market Impact Assessment were worth 600 points under the CRS. As of November 19, there will be new ways of being awarded either 50 or 200 points without the need to obtain a LMIA (though points will continue to be awarded to individuals with a new or existing LMIA).

So that means harder to stay permanent in Canada.......
What is going to happen after the Lmia expire?
New Lmia or what else?

LMIA still is good for people like me which eliminates the 4 year or 5 year maximum limit with Work permit

Thats still good bonus to have these 50 points, plus it gives you ability to work and gain more Canadian experience.
