I think after February 11th which is the deadline of accepting the interview for the one who have been invited, there will be another round if some of invitees do not accept the invitation

I don't think most, even if any, have sent CMG invites out yet. Some are waiting for the FmPROC exam results to be released, which still is not available

I'll raise you a program emailing me the link to their promo video and how they're looking forward to reading my application over the coming weeks to determine interview invites.

You don't need to refresh, just set the notification to immediate on CaRMS. Some programs email first before they update CaRMS

I've had a difference of up to 5 minutes between when the CaRMS portal shows the interview update and when the email notification is sent. So doesn't make a difference 99.9% of the time, but that 0.01% of the time if your timing is right, you can see your interview invite online a few minutes before the immediate notification goes through. For the truly neurotic of us...

Is it safe to assume that if someone has for instance received a Dalhousie Ortho interview and you haven't that you have been silently put on Waitlist or Reject pile?

I would say so - some programs on release rejections after the deadline
