一个叫CIC News 的网站（不是加拿大政府的官方网站），在今年6月15日贴了一篇文章题目叫
Canada set to modernize immigration system
文章主要说加拿大政府面对Covid-19准备采取的一些移民申请的措施，其中包括：
IRCC, for example, would like to utilize digital processes whenever possible to minimize the need for in-person or paper-processes. This would not only protect the safety of IRCC and the public, but could also result in more efficient and faster application processing.
As such, IRCC is looking for a vendor to support its modernization efforts in the following ways:
- Develop tools and technologies to rapidly increase IRCC’s operational capacity so it can handle current manual application processing challenges and the anticipated surge in applications
- Develop digital tools to address new social distancing requirements by reducing the need for in-person meetings through digital solutions (e.g., online citizenship testing, and visa and citizenship applications)
- Identify digital technology solutions for IRCC’s case management system
- Identify how to automate certain processes so that immigration agents can focus more of their time on complex immigration applications
- Incorporate data analytics solutions to provide insights on operational volumes and processing capacities so that IRCC can effectively respond to changes in Canada and abroad
- Develop strategies to strengthen IRCC’s cybersecurity
听说已经招标到了vendor。希望入籍申请的提交能早日电子化，这样不仅能减少传染的机会，而且会加速申请的处理时间
