Hi
i know its a odd question.
we know that there was a strike last year and finally it ended.
It said that
Tentative deal reached with Canada’s foreign-service workers
http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/politics/tentative-deal-reached-with-canadas-foreign-service-workers/article14555842/

Last paragaraph says that
The union had been without a contract since July 1, 2011, and had been in a legal strike position since April of this year. The contract expires June 30, 2014, meaning the two sides will be back at the bargaining table within a year.
Does it mean again strike is going to start in july of this month.
just need to know that still is der possibility of getting strike in near future.
 
^ You have a valid concern. Here's to hoping that it will not happen again. And that both parties agree on a mutually beneficial solution to their grievances ;)
 
Strike last year, more stringent citizenship requirements this year.

And in between I am waiting, and waiting for any feedback from the CIC.
 
Can we please have a definition of what a 'senior' even is?
 
An individual who has more experience/knowledge/expertise about a particular Canadian immigration stream or in general about Canadian immigration. :)

Just going to assume there is no stupid posts in this thread (if you know what i mean ;) )

@ganapathi: I did not know the deal was set for 1 year. It is interesting to see how they will act since last year's strike did put make the process slower for applicants. Even though they said, the strike was carried out only visa officers all around the world, and would not affect CEC applicants, we all know it DID affect us. Just hoping the same won't play out this time.
