Yeah. The wait sucks. I am with you. But the instances of marriage fraud used to be as high as 50% from some offices. Investigators were finding people selling books on how to dupe Canadians into marriage and ghost consultants selling whole fake marriage ceremonies.
I highly highly doubt the 50% number. But fine. Lets assume that for a second. Now that CIC has added a 2 year requirement on the conditional PR, they should make a public commitment to reduce the time it takes for getting your spouse into the country! That the CIC isn't doing so, and it keeps publicizing the unbelievably high marriage fraud numbers makes me feel like they are being disingenuous. My wife and I both have doctorate level education. It seems we'd be more welcome in other developed countries - more so than my own Canada.
