You guys might think “better is enough”. Allow me to remind you that over a year ago, federal courts has ruled that the immigration department has clearly discriminated against parents and grandparents thanks to the formal lawsuit by just one professor. The court’s ruling has benefited thousand people including all of us today because of one man’s job with a different way of seeing things and had the gut to bring it forward at his own cost. Now that the November 4, 2011 timeline has been there for years, how should we cope with it? Why is it not necessary or even dangerous to remind this new government of their duty? I say it “duty” because they came up with the plan, with the numbers, with the promises themselves and so it is their duty to do due diligence to deliver that. We are aware that Minister McCallum himself is an economist, NOT an immigration expert, sometimes things he says on media are not quite accurate in immigration context. His Chief of Staff, Mathieu Belanger is an urban planning expert, in other words, a real estate agent. Yes everyone at Minister’s Office needed time to fit in and to understand the problems. But better yet the Liberals could have placed the senior immigration experts from within their own operations, or hire immigration lawyers to do the jobs for quicker and more focused results. Nobody can tell how long the training will take them to be able to make meaningful changes in this system.
