You have been warned! ;D
Let's come up with possible (not necessarily plausible) reasons why processing times have increased for first stage and second stage processes:
<My scenario>
Background: A House of Commons parliamentary committee has been created to investigate mounting public complaints of increased processing times with ALL Citizenship and Immigration Canada activities. Immigration Minister Jason Kenney is summoned to respond to allegations of budget mismanagement and gross incompetence.
House Speaker: How do you explain, Mr. Kenney, the enormous increase in processing times at the CIC?
Mr. Kenney: Well, Mr. Speaker, you see, we overshot our budget because we had to redecorate our office, so while that was being done we decided to shut down operations and take all our staff in Mississauga on a cruise aboard the Sun Sea to witness first-hand the root causes of immigration fraud in places like sunny, warm and *ahem* sandy beaches, Thailand and Philippines. But don't worry, Mr. Speaker, we'll recover from our deficit by making all our full-time and part-time employees raise cash by having a car-wash event at the parking lot of Robert Speck!
House Speaker: the Sun Sea, eh?
<end of my scenario, your turn>
