application process: The group also said changes are being made to the application process, making it harder to reunite families, according to CTV. Now, they want to put restrictions on family reunification, which we think adds a lot of burden on the immigrants that want to come to the province.

In a statement emailed to CTV News, the province said it is restoring the integrity of Manitoba's Provincial Nominee Program by ensuring processing times are respectful and nominations merit based.
