And the quota is more than 2700. => Extract from http://www.ontarioimmigration.ca/en/pnp/OI_PNPNEW.html. I Quote
"There are many ways to immigrate to Ontario:
The federal government determines the maximum number of nominations Ontario can award annually. Each year, there are about 300,000 immigrants that come to Canada. Of these, Ontario is allowed to select 5,500 through the Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program (OINP) in 2016. This program, which represents only 1.8 per cent of total immigration to Canada, is targeted towards filling labour market gaps with skilled workers. It is just one option for immigrating to Ontario.
Please visit the specific webpages for those streams that are still accepting applications or expressions of interest: French-Speaking Skilled Worker stream, Corporate stream and Entrepreneur stream.
In addition, other options are available from the federal government....."
amongst the nomination todate are also people from December and Jan. Also do not forget that there are also probably a big number of applications that were rejected and also people invited but did not apply (maybe for economical reasons - upfront $1500CAD and were scared)
