Maple Docket

Covers Canadian immigration — from work permits and Express Entry to permanent residence and renting a place to live. Looks harder than most at the gap between official numbers and real chances: when CRS scores climb while refusal rates climb too, that's not a coincidence, and it's exactly this kind of mismatch that gets attention here. Readers come away not with vague promises but with a working sense of what changed in the rules this week and how it applies to their own file. There's a close look at why the FSW refusal rate hit 56% in 2026 and what that means for applicants still filing without French. Alongside that, it tracks how Ontario's new rental rules shift the balance between tenants and landlords — including whether a landlord can actually evict someone in seven days. Political headlines like Canada joining the EU don't get repeated here — only what actually changes status or housing.
