:'( Would this also affect people who have crossed the nomination and currently are in line for the medicals and other CIC stuff. Technically since they have been nominated hopefully they get a fair chance.

Looks like the same winds of Anti Immigration are blowing in Usa, Australia and Canada .I wonder how long the other provinces will keep the US visa stream open .....

If you're already nominated you don't have to worry and after living here for 7 months this is not a Anti Immigrant movement at all it's simple economics, slow economy = layoffs so why bring more people ? capish? ;-)
 
I think Alberta is fearing a second dip in US economy and also the oil price is going south.

They don't want to catch the next wave of dropped H1b's ;D
 
my children @ i is moving to alberta.my husband is already there @ working.i hope it wont affect our papers..especially were waiting for our PPR..im crossing my fingers. @ praying that everything will be ok..

God Bless Us All.!! :)
