This is unsurprising. Since the government has made it so easy and so quick to obtain unconditional residency for spouses, and very few applicants are interviewed, it is little wonder that the program has become the focus of interest by unscrupulous individuals. The solution is to grant conditional residency for a probationary period of time, much like the US does, and to ensure that the marriage is genuine before the residency becomes final. this will also prevent those who are increasingly taking advantage of Canadians by ":marrying and leaving" them as soon as they obtain residency.
