> This measure will remain in effect for one year, or until Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) receives 10,000 applications. Only principal applicants, and not their accompanying family members, will count toward the application cap.
Only 10,000 people? Sounds like a good, but quickly fading opportunity.
Curious where the growth is. I’m assuming in cities. And I’m assuming that “90% of Canadians live within 90 miles of the US border” more than ever. I want my assumptions to be incorrect. But I worry they are not.
>As of June 16, 2023, there are now 40 million Canadians! This is a historic milestone for Canada and certainly cause for celebration. It is also a great opportunity to look back on the country's growth over the years, and to reflect on the future.
This is not for applicants I think. Only those with an H1B approved visa. The ones who have an approved H1B but no job in the US would move to Canada. So they are not targeting those who have a job in US ( they have little to no incentive to move any way).
