Combining 1 & 2 also seems the best way at the moment for me, but there's a thing - I'll need a study visa for number 2, and I'm not sure I can apply for one if I have papers in for number 1, and vice versa.
The wait times come from the Canadian government, through multiple sources. They do state that there's a program running since 2008 to reduce the wait times to 6-12 months, but I have no idea how efficient they are in introducing it.
In regards to money - I have a paid-for appartment in Warsaw that I could let go for around 100.000 CAD. That's all I have though, and if I stick with it, I can pull around 800 CAD a month from renting it, which would cover most of the costs... kind of (would need to pay for someone to manage this, also, tenants change and there would be months without payment for sure).
The last two options I'd consider as contingency plans.
