Dear Sir:
Last several days I joined the demonstration against C-38 in Hongkong. After three days hunger strike and sit-in we submitted a letter to reaffirm that:
We strongly oppose the immigration proposal involved in C38 bill.
We ask you to process and finalize our files immediately in case that the C38 bill might be passed.
We ask to submit our supporting documents with the physical examinations as the processing time schedule.
We remain the right to arrange further steps if we could not get satisfied reply before the end of JUNE.



Another thing is about your reply I received before the demonstration. Sorry for later to answer. Now I would like to discuss it step by step.
Would you please be kind to read it patiently and take my opinion in your consideration?


The Office of the Prime Minister has kindly forwarded to the Honourable Jason Kenney, Minister of Citizenship, Immigration and Multiculturalism, a copy of your e-mail of April 16, 2012, concerning the Federal Skilled Worker (FSW) Program. I apologize for the delay in responding.
As you may know, skilled workers are selected as permanent residents based on their education, work experience, knowledge of English and/or French, and other criteria that have been shown to help them become economically established in Canada. However, Canada’s attractiveness to immigrants means that each year, we receive more applications than we are able to process.
I appreciate Canada although I suppose the immigration system could be more efficient.
With a growing backlog, particularly in the FSW category, individuals with the skills and experience wanted by Canadian employers wait years to be admitted. We must have an immigration system that effectively balances Canada’s own needs with its popularity as a destination. That is why the Government of Canada proposed changes to the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act (IRPA). On June 18, 2008, these changes became law.
Until these amendments to IRPA, applications under the FSW Program, used to be processed in the order they were received, regardless of whether the applicants’ skills or professions would enable them to find a job in Canada.
On November 28, 2008, Minister Kenney announced an Action Plan for Faster Immigration and included a set of Ministerial Instructions (MI-1) with new directives to visa officers reviewing new applications under the FSW program. The number of applications we received under MI-1 exceeded our ability to process them in a timely way.
Exactly so called MI-1 is the beginning of nightmare for FSW applications prior to February 27th of 2008. Applicants were suggested to reapply under the MI-1 instructions and actually some of did and got a faster process.
Personally I signed a letter to reaffirm that I would like to wait in the queue patiently. So did many applicants. We were not told that we had a tiny piece of possibility to be abandoned otherwise we would not have been waiting so many years.
We were not told that we would lose our chance in the end although some of us might eligible to the MI-1.
Due to M1-1 instruction the applicants of Hongkong consulate were paused actually. Nearly three years we were forgotten.
But the Hongkong consulate website kept telling us that ‘your files are under processing’ Many applicants wrote to the consulate to enquiry the status and got the reply that ‘you need to wait patiently’.
Today we found it was the beginning of your cheating!
I need to point that the queue-jumping policy is evil and unfair totally for us. The queue-jumping policy is shame on Canada. That is definite infringement to the basic human right.

Therefore, June 26, 2010, a second set of Ministerial Instructions (MI-2) were issued. MI-2 introduced a cap on the number of applications per occupation and on the total number of applications in the FSW Program. These changes were made to ensure that the processing of applications would best support the attainment of the immigration goals established by the Government of Canada.

MI-2 is welcomed to most past applicants I believe. That is really a method to improve the efficiency from my point of view.
On July 1, 2011, a third set of Ministerial Instructions (MI-3) took effect. These new instructions incorporate a number of changes aimed at reducing the current backlog, as well as improving the processing times for current and past applications.

Applicants who applied before the processing changes came into effect may wish to review the current criteria of the FSW Program and, if they feel they qualify, may decide to apply and take advantage of the new processing standards. They may choose to either, maintain the first application and submit a new application with a new processing fee or withdraw the first application and submit a new application.If an applicant chooses to withdraw their first application before processing begins, they will receive a refund for the processing fee.

Here in MI-3 you still told us that we may choose to maintain the first application and submit a new application with a new processing fee.
It is legal to maintain the past applications.
But I need to point that no enough evidence shows that the 29 occupations have greater demand than those excluded. Mr. Tim Leahy’s research has proven that others are, in point of fact, in greater demand than the 29 -- significantly greater.
CIC studies show that only 36% of immigrants following their "intended occupation". So, how does this micro-managing solve any problem?
According MI-3 we were victims of QUEUE-JUMPING policy as well as in MI-1. It is unfair and it is the root reason why there is a huge backlog of FSW applicants. That is due to you did not take us into your consideration. You plan to abandon us from then on. We still received your reply that we had not been forgotten. You were cheating us once and once again.

As announced in the Government of Canada’s Economic Action Plan of 2012, Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) will continue processing FSW applications. Should the proposed legislation come into force, CIC will close the applications for which a decision based on selection criteria had not been made before March 29, 2012, and issue refunds for fees paid. Applicants whose files are closed are free to re-apply under the current FSW Program or another immigration program, as long as they meet the eligibility requirements.
Here is what I need to focus on:
Firstly you CIC accepted my application fee and told me you started to process my file on XXXXof 2007. You suggested that I need to prepare many things to live in Canada including English studying and getting to know the requirements of Canada employers. So I changed my life line aim to adjust the Canada environment smoothly. My family worked together actually. My daughter went to local foreign language school instead of schooling in common high school. The whole family’s life was changed. We could not be back to several years ago. We have the faith in Canada since you did not tell us we might be abandoned, since we believe that you would not cheat us.
We applied under the rule of 2006. I am convinced that the rule is still suits to us because the common sense is that the new laws could not trace on the old files if it is not on the behalf of the old files.
I am sure you could understand me.
If tomorrow C-38 was passed finally and we could be acted by the bill I guess one day there would be a bill to revoke some certain people’s citizenship due to your discrimination, for instance discrimination against Chinese.
No doubt that would be awful and you may explain that would not happen in any case. But I am not sure about it. Actually I am worrying about it and I will notice it to all my connections.


CIC is transforming its suite of economic immigration programs to create a just-in-time system that recruits people with the right skills to meet Canada’s labour market needs, fast tracks their immigration, and gets them working in a period of months, not years. Eliminating the longstanding backlog of FSW applications will allow the Department to focus resources on facilitating the arrival of skilled immigrants who apply under the current eligibility criteria.
Thank you for taking the time to write

. I trust that this information is of assistance.

I agree with a just-in-time system totally. But the system could not be built on our pain. I would not be the victim of the old system. That is not my responsibility.
Speaking to refund us the application fee and no other compensation I absolutely disapprove.
From the ending of 2006 my lost is invaluable. I paid twice for my daughter’s school selection. It is over XXXXX. I paid nearly XXXXXfor my husband and my Official transcript(s) of education and other supporting documents in case of submit it on time. The whole family spent much time on English studying. My husband and I gave up the work invitation in other city due to no clear idea about our future.
The above lost are visible. As you know the invisible lost is immeasurable. Could we be back to 2006?
We could have other choiceS if CIC gave us clear answer that we might be abandoned. You know Australia, New Zealand, or Singapore as my sister’s family did.
Now we missed the chance.
Could you wipe us out and extinct our dream of Canada?


In the bill: (2) For greater certainty, an instruction given under paragraph (3)(c) may provide that the number of applications or requests, by category or otherwise, to be processed in any year be set at ze
(2) Subsection (1) does not apply to an application in respect of which a superior court has made a final determination unless the determination is made on or after March 29, 2012.

It is obvious defy to the Canada law. Do you agree with it? If it passed the Honorable Minister would have the right that greater than ever. Where was Canada going? The second Germany was in 1939? What would the Minister be? Mr. Hitler?
That needs a huge courage I guess. And I believe that would damage Canadians faith in democracy and the conservative party.

I would not accept the refund simply if my file was closed.
I will insist all my lost due to the cancellation of immigration.
I will work for my right to the end.
I will unite all the applicants I could to object the evil bill.

大家也努力吧

你起诉了，这是对起诉的直接支持
你是九一，这是对九一的直接支持

让保守党听到我们声音，让反对党找到反对理由

至于QQ群里的愤慨甚至咒骂，我不完全反对---让郁闷的心有个发泄吧
但是作用不大，发泄太多还起反作用

至于给律师的各种建议，我不敢反对---但是我个人始终觉得，你要是超自信，你就提议，反正我是不行了； 律师正是大忙时候，不打扰是上策

忍了又忍，还是说了出来
本人胆小，请轻拍
