One can more easily predict earthquakes than these draws
So even if we assume 3600 ITA till december might come down to 465 and then 3300 ita so score will go up and down near 465 and then fst in may to crush all, this is no more fair competition.
 
Also, It's the 131st draw not the 131th :p:D

Someone has to be that guy...
Actually thanks for being that guy. I tried to get this thread by googling Ray of hope 131st draw but Google did not find it. Now it makes sense after you pointed it out :)
 
The reason for reducing the draw size could be either they would conduct back to back draws or they are done for the year and would consider clearing the backlog rather than issuing more itas as they are not able to handle the work pressure.
Sensible post. Good one.

P.S. Your post would have read 'IRCC is out to screw us' if the current negativity were to be kept in mind :D

I would beg to differ bro, They have all resource to handle all application, Just in this case they are working on strategy to keep CRS high,

Strategy to keep CRS high? Please elaborate. Remember that 3900 would keep CRS high as well. So, would 4200. 4500.

Do you think is possible to have a draw in 20th of November? This way they can issue the next one on 4th, followed by one on the 18th?

Now 2019 will surely close at 465 +/-. CIC showcased their intentions loud n clear. Less n less people will be eligible to apply in 2020. They apparently want to fill in lesser populated provinces through PNP/CEC. FSW is facing brutal competition. Feeling bad for people below 460 ( I am one of them ). Nevertheless, I am not loosing any hope in increasing my score to give a tough fight to CEC :)

The shift from 3,900 ITAs to 3,600 ITAs is very important to consider here IMO.

Current cumulative ITAs at 75,300 (as of 11/13)
- Could have a 3,600 ITA back-to-back draw for the next 5 weeks (until the 18th of Dec) to exceed last years 89,800 by ~4%, or
- Could have a 3,600 ITA draw each with 4 more draws left for this year - to match last years ~89,800 ITAs
