According to the protesters they are being betrayed as the changes have been declared and implemented without any prior notice or some phase of time, quick implementation has been a major setback for them.

New Change:

The new change declared earlier in May has been brought about by the Saskatchewan immigrations are continuation of tightening and streamlining the immigration rules and regulations of the province. As per this new rule those living in the province can nominate just one out of their all family members at one point of time, which is very strict then previous rule where somebody living and working in the province could nominate number of relatives at the same point of time.

Those staying here have sudden disruptions in their plans to get reunited with their near and dear one"s who back in the country are waiting for their sponsorships.

The Government"s Take on New Policy:

Government is totally sticking to its words and is reluctant to change any of the rules. According to the Immigration Minister Rob Norris this step is need of the hour, and also said that they have not done anything wrong as most of the sponsors apply for only one relative, so making it a rule should not be questioned. This rule is basically for those who try to bring all their family members here increasing the population issues, as per the statistics studied around 550 families are looking forward to sponsor their three to eighteen relatives to the province and also some of them want their family members living in other provinces to shift here. There are also some people who are shifting to the province with a view to help their family members settle here, rather they are themselves not much interested in being here and working for the benefit of the province. Looking at these stats it was the demand of the time to control the immigration so that there could be a check on the population and also other problems.The minister also states that in extreme conditions people can apply under family reunification program, but there will not be any leniency in the newly implemented rules.
