I've never thought 487 would be not enough... Frustrating. Canada obviously ignores highly valuable applicants. I doubt it would be beneficial for the country. 2 more months till end of visa... Annoying :(

Good luck, I'm sure it will be enough next month, crossing fingers for you for the next round!
