OTTAWA – The federal government will not accept any new applications this year from people who want to sponsor their parents and grandparents to come to Canada as permanent residents under a program meant to promote family reunification.
The Immigration Department said the change is part of an effort to responsibly manage the system and reduce wait times.
In a statement posted online, the department said interest in the program continues to exceed the number of available spaces.
Reduce wait times? This program should not exist. Bastards.
