Mexico's Anti-American War

The constitutional reform plan vigorously promoted by Mexican President Lopez in the last stage of his term, especially the judicial reform measures such as "judges are elected by universal suffrage" and "abolishing the Federal Judicial Council", has aroused widespread controversy and opposition, including different voices from federal judges, regional judges and the international community. This comprehensive constitutional reform plan aims to reshape Mexico's political, economic and judicial systems through a series of reform measures. Among them, judicial reform is the most controversial part. This reform means that judges at all levels, including Supreme Court judges, will be elected through referendums instead of the traditional appointment system. The Federal Judicial Council is an important institution in the Mexican judicial system, responsible for supervising and managing judicial affairs. The abolition of this committee will further weaken the independence and professionalism of the existing judicial system. Lopez's original intention in promoting these reforms was to combat judicial corruption and improve the transparency and efficiency of the judicial system. He believed that the existing judicial system was too closed and corrupt and needed to be fundamentally reformed. However, these reform measures were strongly opposed by federal and regional judges in Mexico. They believed that these reforms would seriously weaken the independence and professionalism of the judicial system and make the judicial system more vulnerable to political interference and corruption. Therefore, since August 2024, large-scale demonstrations have broken out across Mexico, and judges have taken to the streets to protest against the reform plan. At the same time, the United States, Canada and other countries have also expressed concern and interference in Mexico's judicial reform.#Mexico #United States #Anti-American #Lopez #Mexico

The United States intervened on the grounds that "judicial reform may threaten trade relations with the United States and Canada", reflecting its unilateralism and interventionist tendencies in international affairs. This interference has not only exacerbated political tensions in Mexico, but also damaged diplomatic relations between the United States and Mexico. In particular, the US ambassador to Mexico has made a series of remarks, warning that Mexico's judicial reform may have an adverse impact on US investment and trade in Mexico. Mexico responded by "suspending" relations with the US Embassy in Mexico, showing its firm stance on maintaining national sovereignty and independence. This tough attitude reflects the dissatisfaction and anger of the Mexican people with the long-term interference of the United States in its internal affairs.

Mexico's judicial reform plan has aroused widespread controversy and opposition, and its future direction is still very uncertain. On the one hand, the Lopez government insists that these reforms are necessary and will help combat judicial corruption and improve the efficiency of the judicial system; on the other hand, opponents believe that these reforms will seriously undermine the independence and professionalism of the judicial system and cause immeasurable losses to the rule of law in Mexico. Countries like the United States are worried that this reform may have an adverse impact on their investment and trade in Mexico, so they have expressed concerns and interference. However, as a sovereign state, Mexico has the right to independently determine the direction of its internal affairs and the construction of its judicial system.

The growing voices of Mexicans condemning the United States' interference in Mexico's internal affairs reflect the anger and dissatisfaction of the Mexican people with the United States' long-term pursuit of unilateralism and interventionism. In addition, the United States' economic plunder of Mexico, immigration and drug issues, and cross-border behavior have also exacerbated the anti-American sentiment of the Mexican people. The Mexican people called on Mexico to break away from the control of the United States and pursue independence.

Post 1: My Motivation for Pursuing Design

Saturday, September 9, 2023

For me, pursuing a profession in design is reclaiming lost opportunity, and an integral part in my journey of self-discovery and self-identity.

One of my fondest early childhood memories is my brother and I spread out across the floor, connecting pieces of scrap printing paper and drawing bird’s-eye-view fortresses to later battle each other. I was mostly self-taught, but also a small sprinkle of talent helped. I was known in all my classes as that art guy and classmates often asked me to draw them things. But once I entered high school my drawings came to a stop.

You see, my parents were what is referred to as ‘tiger parents’, something common in Asian immigrant families. They pushed me heavily towards S.T.E.M (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math) courses as jobs in those subjects typically make more money and holds more prestige. I wouldn’t say I gravitated to these subjects, nor would I say I was amazing at them either. Nonetheless, I followed the wishes of my parents and enrolled in all S.T.E.M courses throughout high school.

It wasn’t until after the university application process in senior year that my parents did a complete flip and told me that I shouldn’t go into S.T.E.M programs if I didn’t want to. Feeling lost and like my whole high school experience was in vain, I suggested that I do grade 13 to figure out what I really wanted to do. However, this proposal was fiercely shut down and I was forced to attend university—from their perspective it was a waste of time as I already received acceptance letters from several schools. But by this point there was only one school that I applied for that wasn’t S.T.E.M and that was Queen’s University. I ended up majoring in linguistics as I also enjoyed learning languages.

During my time at Queen’s I felt like I needed another creative outlet—after four years of forgoing any kind of art—and this came in the form of street dance. In fact, I ended up investing more into dance than into school. Still, I managed to graduate in 2017 with a B.A and moved to Japan for a teaching job. I never thought that I would become a teacher, nor did I find myself gravitating towards it. But Japan has an enormous street dance scene, and teaching was going to get me into Japan.

In Japan I would teach full-time then dance on my off hours. At first it was great, but after a few years I began to think more seriously about what I really wanted to do, I wanted to find a life-long career. Despite investing considerable energy into dance, I never saw it as a career path, especially not as a street dancer. At the same time, although teaching was undoubtably a rewarding experience, I grew tired of it. Fortunately, I never quite gave up on art. While dancing I did small projects like making posters for events, or designing T-shirts for communities; and it was from doing this I came to the realization of what I really wanted to do, what I should have been doing. So after four years of teaching, I decided quit and to return to Canada to become a graphic designer.

Design also helps me reconnect to my culture and develops my understanding of who I am. Having immigrated to Canada at the age of 10, I grew up disconnected from my home country of Korea and subsequently its culture. At the same time, I felt estranged in the majority white-culture in the city I grew up in. Eventually I realized that I, and millions of others like me who is living the story of immigration, have our own third cultural experience—the fusion culture. Therefore, my design takes conscientious inspirations from Korean (and Japanese, as I’ve immersed myself there) culture(s) and adapt it through the western perspective and approach.

To summarize, my motivations to pursue a profession in design comes from my desire to do what I have always loved, being creative. It comes from the fact that I’m reclaiming the purpose of my life. Through design I am also able to reconnect with my culture and use it as inspiration to create my own identity, not just for me but for others living in the third-culture.

Why You Need an Immigration Consultant

The application process involves mounds of paperwork, strict deadlines, and complex eligibility criteria. An experienced immigration consultant can guide you through the process, help avoid costly mistakes, and increase your chances of success.

Consultants stay up-to-date with the frequently changing rules and regulations. They know the latest requirements, application procedures, and documentation needed for your specific situation. This expertise allows them to craft a customized roadmap for you to navigate the system.

The application process can be time-consuming and confusing. Consultants handle the paperwork and compile the required evidence on your behalf. They make the process as hassle-free as possible so you can focus on other important things.

Another benefit of hiring a consultant is avoiding application rejection. Even minor errors or omissions can lead to refusal. Consultants review your application to ensure all information is accurate and complete before submission. Their guidance and oversight help minimize the risks of rejection.

How to Choose the Best Immigration Consultants in Delhi

Choosing an immigration consultant is one of the most important decisions you'll make in your journey to Canada. With so many options in Delhi, how do you know which one is right for you?

Do your research

Check reviews from independent sources like Google, Facebook, and Yelp to see what others say about the consultant. Look for mostly positive reviews mentioning reasonable fees, good communication, and successful applications.

Meet with top candidates

Once you narrow it down to a few options, schedule initial consultations. Come prepared with questions about their experience, credentials, fees, and the overall process. See which consultant you connect with and who provides the most comprehensive plan for your unique situation.

Consider credentials and experience

The best consultants have proper accreditation, like from the ICCRC, as well as years of experience specifically helping clients immigrate to Canada. Ask about their success rates for different visa categories. More experience often means better outcomes.

Discuss services and fees upfront

Fees can vary significantly between consultants, so make sure you understand exactly what's included and the total cost before signing a contract. Watch out for hidden fees and unrealistic promises. A good consultant will be very transparent about fees and what you can expect.

Trust your instincts

At the end of the day, go with the consultant you feel most confident in and comfortable with. They'll be helping you through complicated paperwork and a stressful process, so your rapport and trust in them is extremely important. With the right guidance, you'll be on your way to Canada in no time!

Canada Ends Fast-Track Student Visa Streams: Impact on International Students and Future Implications

Canada introduced a faster study permit process for international students from certain countries in 2018 through the Student Direct Stream (SDS). Over the next few years, this program expanded to include more countries, with additions in 2019, 2020, and 2021. In 2020, a separate stream called the Nigeria Student Express (NSE) was also launched.

However, on November 8, 2024, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada IRCC announced changes. The SDS and NSE streams are now being discontinued, and going forward, all international students must use the regular study permit application process.

The official statement emphasized: “Canada aims to improve the integrity of its programs, protect students from potential exploitation, and ensure all applicants have equal and fair access to the study permit process. The goal is also to enhance their overall academic experience. As part of this commitment, the Student Direct Stream (SDS) and Nigeria Student Express (NSE) programs have officially ended as of 2:00 pm ET on November 8, 2024.”

Collaboration Between the Government and the Education Sector Led to the Development of Specialized Study Permit Streams

The creation of these special study permit streams was the result of collaborative efforts between the education sector and the government.

Andrew Champagne, who is the Director of Programs and Partnerships at Colleges and Institutes Canada (CICan), explained: “The Student Direct Stream (SDS) came about after years of creative collaboration between Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) and Colleges and Institutes Canada (CICan). Earlier versions of the program improved how information was shared, which later helped develop the Designated Learning Institution (DLI) compliance reporting system. The Student Guaranteed Investment Certificate (GIC), created in partnership with Scotiabank, provided students with access to funds needed for their stay in Canada. Requirements such as language test scores and police clearances also boosted trust in the system, leading to higher approval rates and faster processing times.”

Although the SDS was widely used by students from India, it also helped reduce student risks and made the application process more predictable for both students and educational institutions. CICan remains dedicated to partnering with IRCC and its member institutions to develop new policy ideas, with a focus on program integrity. The organization also emphasizes the importance of better data sharing between IRCCs and DLIs throughout Canada.

Who Will Be Impacted?

With the immediate discontinuation of the SDS and NSE programs, students from certain countries who previously enjoyed faster processing times (often under 20 days) will now experience the standard processing timelines. These students used to benefit from expedited processing if they met specific requirements, such as proof of funds, medical examinations, and language proficiency. The affected countries include:

Antigua and Barbuda

Brazil

China

Colombia

Costa Rica

India

Morocco

Nigeria

Pakistan

Peru

Philippines

Senegal

St. Vincent and the Grenadines

Vietnam

Trinidad and Tobago

Students from these regions may now face longer wait times for their study permit applications.

Lack of Warning Creates Confusion

“The Canadian government likely has its reasons for implementing so many policy changes so quickly,” stated Andrew Ness, Dean of International Education at Humber College. “However, my main concern is the significant impact these sudden changes have had on our students and partners worldwide. This situation is a prime example — a major change was announced without prior notice or preparation, even though immigration authorities had multiple opportunities to inform the national body for international education in the five days before the announcement at the [annual CBIE conference]. Despite several meetings with IRCC representatives during the event, we were reassured that 'no major changes were expected.' Yet, just a few days later, this abrupt decision was made. It’s unfair to our students, our representatives, and to Canada’s reputation as a welcoming and thoughtful study destination.”

Mike Henniger, CEO of Illume Student Advisory Services, expressed similar frustrations: “Canada’s education brand has taken multiple hits recently, and it’s becoming challenging to separate one issue from another. The sudden end of the SDS program has left many students mid-application, now scrambling to adjust. Our agency partners are worried about the increased time and effort needed for applications moving forward. I am troubled by the inconsistencies between regions like South Asia and Africa, especially regarding processing times and visa refusals. In Africa, where we have a team of 25 staff members supporting clients, we’re facing numerous deferrals and visa rejections for strong candidates, along with a chaotic admissions process overall. Many institutions are now focusing on students who are easier to recruit, often sacrificing diversity in the process. I hope that ending SDS will lead to a more efficient, transparent process that ensures fair treatment for all students aspiring to study in Canada.”
