I think the gp is referring to Canada's point system. As long as you have enough points, then you will be admitted into Canada.

But how long is the wait?

In US, if - and that's a big if - you're lucky enough to win H-1b early April, you may start working early October. Is there anything as fast with Canada? Without employer agreeing to hire you even though you don't have a working visa - i.e., you have to apply for one?
