medical on kids not in application?

situation is at final stage ,canada now making medicals on wifes kids in uk that are not part of application for PR mandatory at a cost of 317.00 each
they state that this is needed in order to retain our right to sponsor the kids at any time in the future should some sort of accident happen and the children require care"ex death of father etc.
keep in mind they also admit that should we ever start a sponsorship for children more medicals at that time required
sounds like extortion to me
i just cant get around the logic of this ,is there any recourse.
can they really state 10 years from now should a childs family be killed in a catastrophe that their mother cant bring them to canada unless she pays money for un necesary medicals now?

I'm having trouble with this situation, too.  My son, who is a minor, lives in Germany with his father, my ex-husband.  My ex is being uncooperative and refusing to allow my son to get the necessary medical exam.  Our divorce was not amicable, and now he seems to think it's payback time.  What he doesn't seem to realize is that he is ruining any chance my son could have to come to Canada, should he want or need to in the future.  I've no idea what to do.

ITS TRUE.....It thus hapened to me ...Our original meds expired...Now when the embassy asked us to redo we thought just the daughter whom was coming and my husband ...Would have to redo ...but nmope everyone on file had to redo ....accompaning and non accompaning Dependants ...and primary applicant ...

CIC clearly states that all listed on the file will have to be medically examined and  have a valid medical (Meds only good for 12 months) in order for the main applicant to get PR...Cant pass a in valid med thus why everyone has to redo ...

Like i aid i had to recently do this ....

I just thought somene with expirience like myself should share this info ...

we payed around 1000 for 2 swets of meds ....not easy on the pockets thats sure!!

Good luck !!
