Did you see?; he followed what he said in the slide. Although there were recommendations afterwards, he did not change his plan on the slide.
What we don't know is what the definition of "Siblings" includes?.

This is the same as it has always been. They just added in wording about Masters because lots of people weren't sure if masters counted as 1 year or 3.

You guys are driving me nuts.

Ugh. These changes have been made now. I find it unlikely they will throw in more changes now, maybe next year same time they will add points for siblings and french speakers. If they stagger the changes so close together it causes far too much confusion for EVERYONE. Plus, updating a system as important as CRS scores to accurately give candidates the correct points takes time to test.

It is likely that in future siblings will get more points, as the slides seem to say, but I don't think it will be in this round of changes.

But don't you think that if it is the case, then his voters would protest about this delay...

Has anyone recalculated the scores using the following link:

canadavisa.com/comprehensive-ranking-score-calculator.html

The score seems to be changing with the new system. Any comments/ observations from the group?
I found myself getting 14 points less than usual. No points were awarded for my spouse's language score. I hope it's just a bug in the new calculator. We have to wait until they fix the code.

Erm, I doubt the few thousand people in Canada with external siblings wanting to move to Canada are going to affect the voters that much.

What future? They have already passed their 1/4 of their term (ie one year), and now more time means more opposition from other parties in Parliament for not implementing their promises. The most important thing for a politician is to fulfill his promises otherwise that won't be called a wise decision. Many people have been waiting for last one year and preparing themselves according to govt. plans.

There's people in Canada where politicians have promised the moon.

Seriously, not every promise made by a politician comes to fruition, how naive are you?

Again, even if they want it, how many of them are going to take to the streets to protest... the government is apparantly committed to giving siblings more points. They likely will. I'm just saying it might not be this year.

As they need votes in 2019, there are a lot of canadian citizens who need to bring their brother or sister to canada, if the liberals skip this , how will they get elected in next election.?

Wow... I don't know, maybe with other promises.

There's also several million other Canadians who hate the idea of bringing in more people to Canada just because their family is there.
