High achievers want to learn, build international careers, explore business opportunities, and grow professionally. It has nothing to do with Canada being "a better country" since many people are from western Europe, the US, or they're not escaping from anything.
When you have applied for PR via express entry, the expectation was that you go through this process reasonably quickly (within 6 months) so that you don't have to put on hold your personal goals or hinder your life plans. This is how they advertise "express entry"; they want to attract people with skills, education, and money. As soon as the express entry premises turn out to be false, what's the reason to be in Canada?
I find it insulting that people inland, working and paying taxes in Canada, are left in this limbo (in 2019 I've paid over 70k of taxes, and they're telling I need to add +15% if a want to purchase a home or I can't register a business? They're basically telling, you have all the duties and not the same rights. Thank you but no thank you, I'm out of here for the time being)

It's even more ridiculous when someone tries to justify this situation with COVID - if there're problems in processing the backlog, why keep inviting thousands of people outland each month? How in the world are they going to clear the backlog when there are people waiting for 10+ months already?
Well said. It's really annoying when people get short sighted and think the world is just limited to their own orbit. People are here for various reasons, not just to run away from bad situations at their home countries. We should expect optimum service in this immigration quest especially when it's being touted that such service is the standard process. How does one explain that some folks got their PR in 2-3 months in the same Covid era while others are waiting for close to 1 year and don't tell me applications are different. That excuse is tired

Well, I am from France, I have a good paid job here in Canada. I think there is no need to still debating. I mean we all experienced delay and everyone has his own reason to complain. I am just too optimistic and positive to complain. In my case, I know if I am not happy with the situation I d rather go back to France instead of complaining.

But I guess some prefer to complain about all the things they 've been missing rather than being patient and keep faith.
The choice is yours! But know that some country will never give you residency. You can try the USCIS next door, you'll see the delay for family sponsorship for example. You can't only claim the benefits or advantages. And yes, you still have the choice to complain or withdraw your profile or be patient with your file and who knows you could have a good surprise for 2021!

People so focused on themselves and egocentrics when pandemic kills.

They only issue those invites just to meet their financial goals 10,000 invites in one month is = 10,000*1400= $14 million. They don’t care about whatever backlog they have they only care about the money

You should see your biometrics reference number, once updated and expiry date, on your profile.

The applicants saying they are willing to go back home, due to the delay in processing times caused by covid are from countries such as France,UK,Australia and other G7 countries with the same standard of living as Canada. For some of us, who were not in privileged to be born in such countries, we have no option but to just wait until our PR comes.

I know waiting for PR delays a lot of life plans such as getting a government job, purchasing a house and registering a business. The BOWP I applied for extended by work permit for another 10 months, I know my PR is coming and won't be running away. Try and keep busy and you will eventually get the golden email.

Speak for yourself and refrain from using words such as "we" and "us" on public forums

Recommend CBSA, see why https://bit.ly/34nuJPu
Since you are inland you can request from both IRCC and CBSA for free
