Is your question to me?
I agree with what you said. This is our wheelhouse. Canada is terrific at this. We've shown it over and over again. Communities across this country and spiritual centres can do it.
I can tell you, sir, that I have been trying to get Afghans out of Afghanistan since August. I have a paper trail as long as you like to show that IRCC does not respond, or they ask a question and then don't respond or they don't issue the letters required. They are simply not doing the job they're supposed to do. You seem to be angry that I'm pointing that out. Well, I can imagine how upset people whose lives are at risk are when they're getting these nonsensical forms and they're not getting a reply. I don't understand why that is happening. I have had meetings with people there who say, “We're overwhelmed. We have too much work.” Then hire more people.
I feel your anger with what I said, but I stand by what I said. Canadians are good at this. We are, I dare say, the best in the world at bringing in people, resettling them, restarting their lives, but if we can't get them here, then we can't do that for them.
I believe the government needs to put a great deal of attention and effort into IRCC, even if it takes money, so they can do the job that Canadians expect them to do.
