I read a few pages on canada.ca and you are right they don't become citizens they obtain a "super visa" and are forced to buy a medical insurance from a Canadian provider.¹ I have no more opposition to the reunification program !

It's pretty sad that you rejoice in other people being treated badly (or unfairly).
With a 200k CAD income, I'm likely[1] a top 10% earner. Most immigrants to Canada likely earn more than the average Canadian, since the Canadian immigration system heavy selects for high-skilled individuals with. So, considering skilled immigrants' tax contributions are likely quite a bit higher, don't immigrants' parents deserve to have full access to free healthcare?
[1] The statistics top out at 100k: https://www.statista.com/statistics/464262/percentage-distri...
There is a temporary visa for parents and grandparents, but there is no access healthcare with it, which is serious matter[2][3][4]. For example:

Did you bother to google Canada's family immigration laws?
