I am a planning to apply for Canada PR under skilled worker category. One of my friend told that his application has been rejected on the grounds that going forward Canada is not going to take any application under skilled worker category because of the changed rules...

Can anyone tell me, how much this is true...I am also trying to look up the Canada Immigration website, but did not find any such info..

Stories like this usually have some missing detail that is critical to understanding what happened. My guess would be your friend applied under a NOC job that is not on the list of 38 accepted occupations at the moment, but that's pure speculation. Without knowing exactly the response from CIC, it's impossible to say what happened, but you're absolutely right in checking the CIC website, that is the font of all knowledge about what are currently the rules.
 
Just go ahead and apply if you think you are qualified.

Your friend misunderstood what the rejection letter said.

Goto www.cic.gc.ca. There is no such information mentioned there. They are accepting the applications under FSW
 
I guess the best way to look at `publications` and `news` at CIC website for any such updates. I did not see any news or hint when I visited the URL lately. :)
