@whsleo "Planning" ! I wonder what goes on in those meetings where these decisions are made! It's like when they build rental apt buildings and then realize the roads around it won't accommodate traffic!!

@ScotiabankHelps is your interac deposit function not working today?

[Negar Achtari @NegarAchtari]

@CBCNews This comes hardly as a surprise. Many practitioners predicted that.

Canada is making it easier for families to reunite and support themselves once in Canada. Faster processing times, open work permits, and more understanding processing decisions are part of the new measures announced today by Minister Fraser: https://t.co/7CI5l8pvpO

@TheWillTruth Lol! By the looks of it, you are doing great!!

@SeanFraserMP Les mesures annoncées permettent à ceux et celles ayant un statut temporaire de rester plus longtemps. Je vous prie de penser aussi à ceux et celles qui ont perdu leurs statuts et ne peuvent présenter de demande d'extension ou de restoration.

@PGamliel @CitImmCanada I received the same automated message when corresponding with the Ottawa local office for a G5 application. I completely agree with you. It's crazy!

@betsy_kane @TimHortons @McDonaldsCanada @Popeyes @SwissChaletCA @HarveysCanada I'm blaming #IRCC for this. Bad policies! There are many graduates #internationalstudents who have fallen between the cracks and lost the opportunity to obtain their #PGWP...why not find a way to put them back on a path to #permanentresidence.

[Negar Achtari @NegarAchtari]

@betsy_kane @TorontoStar This is so wrong. On so many levels.

Afghan activist has r TRV rejected. Boilerplate refusal. Decision likely via AI or triage. https://t.co/SunAuZ7emn via @torontostar

Federal court reaffirms that in a work permit application an applicant's lack of travel history should be treated as a neutral factor, rather than a negative factor, in IRCC's assessment of whether the applicant will return to their country of citizenship. https://t.co/lZXSPufiNF
