早上打开电脑,先来一大篇儿阅读理解。康尼讲话了无新意,老调重弹而已。

When our government came to office, I quite honestly think we didn’t fully understand the depth of the problem of backlogs in our system. We found out that there were 840,000 people waiting in our immigration system for an answer on their application.
Why did that happen? Very simply because for years, the previous government, I’m not trying to be partisan about this, this is objectively true and a policy mistake was made, I’m sure in good faith. I don’t think they made this mistake in malice or deliberately but they didn’t correct it. And the mistake was simply this: they created a system that ignored the fact that, around the world, there’s an infinite number of people who want to come to Canada obviously.
.......
And this means that new applicants in our new system who have a job lined up will go to the front of the queue and will be admitted to Canada within just a few months of their application, helping to guarantee their success. So
I’ve spent a lot of time explaining that, because the stuff is complex and it’s easily misunderstood. ‘Why is the government sending all those applications back? That’s not fair. What about those people, they’ve been waiting their chance, their turn; they’ve been waiting their time in, in the queue?’ And I understand that.
But frankly, you know, let me be honest.
We didn’t create that problem, but we have to solve it because just to keep the problem festering was not a solution. Telling those people they were going to still have to wait eight years was not a solution. (这根本是胡说八道,赤裸裸的恐吓!)Waiting until the end of this decade until we could get to a fast system that gets better results was not really, in my view, an option. And so we are inviting all of those folks again, if they would like, to reapply.
Now we’ll be doing a number of other things this year that
will get to this vision of a faster, more flexible system with much better employment and incomes for newcomers.
We, this summer we will be pre-publishing regulations for a new points grid for the skilled worker program based on all the data research and consultations that we have done, which indicate that younger economic immigrants tend to do better over their lifetime. I guess they come, they’re more flexible, they pick things up more quickly and they’ve got more years frankly to work and pay taxes, which is a good thing.
Secondly, for those who want to come into regulated licensed professions,
we’re going to say that they have to have a solid minimum level of proficiency in one of our two official languages. Because, you know, one of the problems with credential recognition is even when we do have foreign trained professionals who get their licenses, if their language skills aren’t up to the Canadian standard, then they just don’t find employment. So we’re not doing them any favours by bringing them in to face underemployment and that’s why,
for licensed professions, we’re going to require a reasonably high language benchmark.
But we’re also going to create more flexibility in the system by creating a skilled trades stream. For too long, it’s been almost impossible for the hardworking skilled tradespeople, whose skills are much in demand in Canada, to get through our skilled worker program because they didn’t have university degrees. And so
we’ll be creating a new pathway for those folks and if you’re employers who need and employ skilled tradespeople, this is good news for you. And also, and most excitingly, we will be creating a system of pre-assessment of the education, and eventually of the professional qualifications, of applications for immigration to Canada.

未来,就FSW而言,有机会的只有两类人:低技能的工人(语言能力可以不太高),高端的专业人士(更强语言能力)。
