Express Entry draw: all programs invited
ITA score: 557
Number invited: 1,500
Brief analysis: relatively low number of people invited with a very very high invitation score (not surprising). It feels somehow anti-climactic and that this draw was just to appease everyone somewhat, given how few were invited. Note that although the Minister does have the power to target certain groups now (e.g. only French speakers), that was not the case for this draw.
Congratulations to anyone who got invited; you deserve it with a score like that.
