Well here is what I have thought of doing if I get into your shoes when I140, US GC looks dicey. (I already have Canadian PR till August 2010).
I would take a three/four week vacation and go and live there. Prepare for a job and get first hand ground feeling of what it feels like living in Canada, make a living and raise a family. After all making a living to able to support yourself is a important corner stone thing. You can't live of fresh air.
Can you compare your situation ? No. You are not the same nature, skills, personality, intelligence and willingness as others and most of all your own Luck. You know yourself best and the only way you can tell that the place will work out for you is when you go get a sample for yourself and your gut feeling. I went to Vancouver and just loved the place. My wife saw the clouds and gloom and hates the place (spoilt by southern california). You will be your best judge.
Take the harshest sample: Winter is tough in Canada. Go now and take a feel of what you will be expecting and set your expectation.
Info: Approx 90% of the Canadian population lives within 100-200 miles north of the US border.
Down the road: Make a plan and see whats your options down the road. Looking back is no good way of planning for the future. 3 years + few months, you can be Canadian Citizen. You have then the option of using TN and come right back into the USA, if you even have the need. Looking back now I feel I should have started this journey 2 years back. In the next year or so I would be a Canadian and could have come right back without the 140 and 485 headache. After two years I am still holding my breath for 140. Rightfully, Heaven is where I feel at peace. US has made me feel miserable and bitter after 9 years of rough rollercoaster and no end in sight. Can't buy a house, can't live freely, always on the edge and mercy of the Boss and H1B.
Having Canadian PR in hand is like having a bird in your Hand, and US GC is like two birds in the bush (I feel the birds are in Bush in Texas :) and its going to eat me, rather than I eating it) You don't even have the US Bird in sight and the story is getting tougher....
All options good. Go spend some time in Canada and see what your gut feel says.

This is why I said 221G is a good initiative. Even if people have to suffer a little bit, full check is needed for every visa stamping and every green card application.
I guess its much better for frauds to have an EAD/AP, then they can easily bypass the checking at consulates.

VB was distorted by the fact that LC process was expedited and back-log was cleared recently. Some of those with early PD just got LC approved and able to file last July 2007.
Therefore, getting back to old VB is not expected soon. I predict that it can take a year or so before it gets back to May 2007 VB.

I have created several documents and am working on a similar one as outlined below. But we need 50 people working on such items instead of one.
We have lots of ideas pouring into threads here but most are soon forgotten and not followed up on.
gc_peshwa has created a googlegroup to deal with participating on USCIS calls etc. We can add this agenda to that group to prevent creation of too many googlegroups and spreading ourselves thin. Alternatively we have a "Media" googlegroup as well which is dormant. That group could be used for this purpose.
We see a lot of these articles every day praising illegal immigration. How about creating a google group with volunteers that will pick up such similar articels and post a rebuttal, either online or through another website?
The one we discussed yesterday was about how illegals contribute to the economy by paying $1.5 Billion in income tax for an estimated 15-20 million illegals.
This was estimated from the 2010 Census data.
We could initially post these rebuttals online on probably a section of the IV website and also send it to other news sites.
People who are good at parsing excel/MDB, csv sheets will be useful.
Most people are not aware of our issues and contributions to society.

It is time again for setting expectations before the bulletin is released and then see it shattered like a glass falling on the floor :) Anyway here are my expectations:
MARCH 2008 VISA BULLETIN
-----------------------------
EB3-ROW March 2003
EB3-INDIA June 2001 (sorry had high hopes last time)
EB2-ROW C
EB2-INDIA June 2001 (change from U - Unavailable)
Please feel free to predict your expectations.
How can EB-2 India move if USCIS has already said that all visa numbers for FY have been used up ? It's supposed to remian U until Oct 08
EB-3 India - Most likely Dec 01

The doldrums of August continue on Capitol Hill. Congress is out of session and so there is little visible progress to report on the immigration bill. But that doesn�t mean that there is no news at all. We are still getting indications that the Senate and the House are engaged in quiet negotiations over the framework for a compromise and there were news reports this week that the White House has also been working to encourage a deal. It still appears that the "triggers" concept could be the answer. The idea that has been promoted by several in the GOP is that the legalization provisions in the immigration bill would be delayed until after border security measures are put in place. Expect things to heat up in September.

Sushi, are you referring to the lens system working across the board? Interestingly they are now making similar lenses to the others that are for their "clipped" sensors. (i.e. small)
