*This process has been dispensed with since 26/6/2010, under MI-2. However, the system very much remain the same except that now the stage-2 docs r no more required - and should be sent directly to CIO-NS, as one 'complete advance' package.

Breaking News!
Chris Alexander, MP for Ajax-Pickering is now the new Minister of Citizenship and Immigration.
https://twitter.com/calxandr
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UNrfxLfLwcc&feature=youtu.be
Jason Kenney is now the minister of Employment and Social Development, formerly known as Human Resources and Skills Development Canada.

Does this have any reprecussions for the strike being held at various visa offices around the world?

Not yet clear, although Mr. Alexander is a former PAFSO member!.
Hopefully he will be able to take some steps to address PAFSO members concerns regarding their pays and can manage to compromise this issue.
Best wishes,
 
That sounds like a cabinet reshuffle so i don't think the new Minister For Immigration will be able to influence anything ( even if he is a former PAFSO member). Here's hoping though.

Any day now Barca. You'll be in Canada before the 1st El Clasico! (27th Oct). ;D

Its pure torture. And the real icing on the cake is that things in Canada aren't exactly bright and rosy either.

Its a real struggle for stable jobs and professional satisfaction.

I guess if Canada had to choose a national word, it would be perseverence.

Your prediction is much appreciated!

Canada will be a struggle at first but Mrs Farney and i are confident things will work out in the end. I think it will be a great experience and am hugely looking forward to emigrating next year. Where are you planning to land?
