CIC a big mess

OTTAWA — About 150 newcomers got lucky Wednesday after the government decided to grant them permanent residency even though their immigration applications were unceremoniously tossed thanks to the recent budget.


NDP immigration critic Jinny Sims said she's “pleased” the government has acknowledged that a mistake was made and that it's redressing it, but believes the incident highlights a bigger problem.

“The real mistake is the deletion of all those files in a very unfair manner and the fast pace the minister is changing immigration policies,” she said, adding the pace of change has left little time to ensure a smooth transition, let alone adequate Parliamentary oversight.

Leading Canadian immigration lawyer Richard Kurland agreed Kenney made the right move and doubts the government will face any legal headaches from those not impacted by the glitch as the minister has the authority to grant permanent residency in exceptional circumstances.

That is a mess. But it's about the skilled worker visas.

Wow. Talk about a mess!

No. It's because of that huge backlog. The computer error was in favor of those people. They weren't supposed to get visas but did. And he's going to let them keep the visa. They are actually lucky.

come on as if we have not seen multiple serious errors in this very thread!

 

[canadiangirl78]

Of course there will be errors. It sucks but it's a fact of life.

 

[canadiangirl78]

My point was it's an error we don't have to worry about here. It's a totally different scenario. Anyway pretty sure TS is using up all the computer errors.
