I'm glad they are looking more into this.
I know the red tape I had to get through and the time it took to get my family here, when I used to share my story with a few other immigrant coworkers I would get laughed at. "We paid a guy and we were all here in 6 months". I know of girls misrepresnted as sisters/daughters of people they weren't related to, guys marrying their brothers Canadian girlfriends, made up stories of persecution for refugee status.

Makes me angry, the hoops I had to jump through others simply side stepped.
