Regular immigration there are fees associated to the application. A refugee claim, there are no fees, every thing is provided and all the costs are covered. They get welfare, interm-federal health, settlement assistance and much more. Per capita, a refugee claim cost substansially more than a person making an application for permanent residency. To be honest, CIC probably makes some money off of some of the PR applications. Usualy it is a non-refundable fee. So if it is a straight forward appication and doesn't meet the points required, thanks for the fee, and see you later.
And you guys seriously think the visa is going to fix this? Dude who screws the system gets welfare, heathcare, assistance and what not. Dude who goes by the book and misses a point gets hosed. Yeah the visa are going to fix THAT.
