Anyone who could guess how many applications are currently left in the pool since 2020? Some said more than 100,000? In 2020, I remembered someone said the pool has over 200,000 applications. Then each years, IRCC has sent between 15,000 - 37,000 invitation, so said, on average 18,000 x 5 years (2020-2021-2022-2023-2024) = 90,000 invitations...
If the above assumpsion is correct, then we are half-way, meaning, it would take another 5 more years to complete the pool, if they don't change the mode of selection (lottery) or stop the program completely
Now with the new PM from the same party, this 5-year period seems to stick around....

I think there’s 75,000 left.
