. Thank you Rossei for this post.Only one person is continuously arguing against the PGP programme due to Healthcare burden.This may be one's personnel problem.Most of the kids do not invite their Parents only because of Healthcare benefit but must be because they wish to reward the persons who brought them up. Now please stop this NonSense discussion and concentrate on the NOBLE motive for which this Forum is started.

More like why YOU THINK PGP is popular.

Parents who live in parts of Europe get free medical care and actually have their own pensions in their home country as well so they aren't coming here to push you down on the hospital waiting lists or live off your taxes.

Ask anyone outside the PGP program and they will likely tell you the same, if they are not afraid to tell the truth to your face.

The majority of the europe health care are two-tier system. Thus tends to rank higher in health care rankings than Canada, in other words, in order to get "free health care" you got to pay the fees. No fees, no service or long wait to see doctor or service.

The fact that there are no fees to pay to see doctor and free health care, regardless of employment makes it attractive compare to Europe.

Anyway enough about the political correctness of PGP, it's about PGP 2016 processing.

I am hoping we get some movement on cc charges today. I know it will be while for them to start on the 9:43am purolator batch but some progress on the others will be encouraging to see.

I still find it hard to believe that reaching CIC within two hours of opening is not enough to be in first 5k.

By looking at the speed and trend looks like everyone is getting charged and incomplete application this year won't be that much bcoz most of people had an idea how to apply so looks like getting into 10K will be difficult at this time :(
