Citizenship, Immigration and Multiculturalism Minister Jason Kenney is proposing changes to to improve citizenship program. If approved, it would change the way that citizenship applicants aged 18-54 prove their language ability.

it seems that migrating and becoming citizens to canada are getting harder and harder to achieve, with so many changes and demand i guessed they are just trying to manipulate those who are interested to work and live in their country ....why don't they stick with one policy and try to work with documents way back 6 years ago or more ....to give a better chance to those who patiently wait....:(
It's because of the flat world. Middle jobs are being outsourced to India and other countries. For example, an accounting firm that handles 100,000 client can run business properly with only 5 to 10 accountants. So they don't need many accountant to do that and thus the requirements for accountant is no longer needed. But of course there are some jobs which you can't outsource like nurse.
In short, it's not that migrating is getting harder and harder, they we're trying to limit the increase of population as it would result in unemployment due to outsourcing and off shoring. If you want to immigrate to Canada then think of jobs that are untouchable, those jobs that are hard to outsource or offshore.
