Congrats!

You are really the lucky one.However,I highly doubt that it has got anything to do with your local office .One good example has been provided by you ,of your friend.Infact, during past few weeks I have read couple of experiences shared by people about faster processing nowadays.I think it might be a new trend adopted by CIC after issuing a plethora of RQs last year.May be they are already over burdened with lots of RQs,so processing the relatively new (& may be less suspicious )applications faster ,to stop the system from being clogged.
But,it will be interesting to see ,how things move in the coming months.In my view,CIC is pretty confused, and the whole system is undergoing an overhaul.

i think they should follow something similar to US green card processing. When you apply for green card, the date they receive the application is called priority date. As long as your priority date is current, even in situation like RQ, you will still get your priority. They don't give first class treatment to some people and second class or third class treatment to others.

yes lucky one good for you, but now that you are done, PLEASE dont forget the people behind you and vote against the conservative party this October election, both liberals and NDP are calling for cutting out waiting times in citizenship applications to a half.

I hope these are not just empty words/promise to gain more voters.
