CANADA ANNOUNCES MEASURES FOR IRAQ FAMILY REUNIFICATION

It seems that the Government of Canada has develop the habit of reacting to international crisis by bumping some people ahead of the line. The problem is that everyone feels entitled to be at the head of the line. Every time there is a civil war, catastrophe of some kind, or any otter displacement, Citizenship and Immigration Canada forges ahead with some kind of "program" to bring people based only on family relationships, even some tenuous ones, at the behest of different ethnic groups. This is hardly a good policy habit. Instead of doing this, they should concentrate on bringing the people Canada needs, so they can be employed and productive in jobs that now go begging, not more "family class" to be stuck on welfare, without language skills and unhappy. I am sure that the visa posts could find many applications from Iraqi Skilled Workers who are educated and could land a job immediately, but who will not be helped by the new program. See link:
