Well done hamid22. Let us now hope the other non-litigants (including the ex-litigants) will join you to take things forward. Best wishes to you all.
As Section 87.4 of Bill-38 has closed all of your files, you should first try to get that revoked. As revocation of Section 87.4 of Bill-38 does not seem to be in the radar of the new immigration minister (http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/manitoba/immigration-minister-john-mccallum-6-challenges-he-faces-1.3304602) or the new government (http://www.macleans.ca/politics/ottawa/the-trudeau-cabinet-and-its-to-do-list/, http://www.forbes.com/sites/andyjsemotiuk/2015/10/21/10-steps-trudeau-can-take-immediately-to-improve-canadian-immigration/, http://rabble.ca/blogs/bloggers/behind-numbers/2015/10/ten-promises-justin-trudeaus-liberals-could-deliver-their-firs) for the next few months, you should influence them by mounting pressure through lobbying or by filing a fresh litigation. To do this, you should first form a strong group, brainstorm among yourselves, devise strategies and then approach lobbying groups or legal experts in Canada. In the next couple of weeks, I will provide some leads and contacts in Canada, whom you may approach.
I would request our litigant boarders to chip in and help this non-litigant group whenever needed and where ever necessary. Your support, I believe, will help them greatly.
Meanwhile, I would advise the non-litigants to closely follow the 'Prospective Canadian Immigrants' public group (~1940 members) in Facebook. They are predominantly a group of ex-litigants who applied before 27 February 2008 and who got backlogged by the queue-jumping processing policy of Citizenship and Immigration Canada. Now their files have been closed by Section 87.4 of Bill-38. I guess some of you here might also be a part of that Facebook group. Find out and analyse why they have failed. They have lost all their litigation in all the three courts of Canada (Federal Court, Federal Court of Appeal and Supreme Court of Canada). Learn from their mistakes and you may ask them to join your group to strengthen yours or if needed to supplement your efforts. In that Facebook group, some members come up with great ideas, but collectively as a group they fail miserably. Having been repeatedly beaten up by Jason Kenney and Stephen Harper and having lost a significant amount of money on many failed litigation using different lawyers, this group is now extremely shy and morally down. They now seem to be a spent force with no direction or determination. It looks more like a chat group with no effective moderation or coordination or agenda or concrete action plan. It's leadership lacks resolve and professionalism. Being clueless, they are heading nowhere. It is a classic example of the blind leading the blind. They are holding a meeting on 14 November 2015 at Ludhiana, a city in the Indian state of Punjab to decide on their next course of action. Let us hope, this time at least, they do something worthwhile than merely getting together to socialize this festive season. If they really want to become a mighty force again, they will have to thoroughly introspect, dismantle their present leadership, elect a new leadership team, brainstorm for ideas and devise an action plan to get Section 87.4 of Bill-38 revoked. The invigorated or rejuvenated or refreshed group may be christened "FSW Seeking Repeal of s.87.4 of Bill-38".
