Immigration Office: Year Of The Rabbit

Swat Team Dept: Ever since she applied to sponsor them to Canada in 2005, the Toronto registered nurse, who is here by herself, has longed for their arrival and been disappointed each year. The Year of the Rabbit, which begins next Thursday, will be no different, according to The Star. Shen is among a group of Chinese Canadians calling on Ottawa to send a swat team to its immigration office in Beijing to reduce a growing backlog of applications to sponsor parents to Canada. Officials took a similar approach five years ago to get rid of a sponsorship backlog in India. In 2005, 10,516 applications were processed in New Delhi and annie Shen weeps when she thinks of her aging parents still in China during the Chinese New Year, a time of family gatherings. Every year, I make the wish that my parents would be here with me, said Shen, who is still waiting after five years. As reported in the news.
