Hi,

Interesting news feed from CBC reference immigration to MB.

http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/manitoba/story/2013/03/20/mb-immigration-numbers-down-manitoba.html

Seems federal Gov has imposed a cap of 5000 per year, and favours single applicants rather than families. This may be one of the reasons why MPNP PR applications are taking longer to process? It looks like the federal government is selecting applicants according to the size of the family rather on a first come first served basis. Lest hope we are one of the 5000 this year, mind you we might not be a priority as we are a family of 4!

Regards

Andrew
