A spokesperson for Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada said;
“the site became temporarily inaccessible to users as a result of a significant increase in the volume of traffic.”

“Immigrating to Canada is a complex, paper-intensive, time-consuming process,”
he added;
“This notion that somebody can just decide to move to Canada and live here is misdirected.”
