Well, I think what you're saying is that it's too easy and it's too hard.
I'll tell you frankly that what I hear from employers consistently is that the process is too bureaucratic and too slow-moving. That's why we tried to accelerate low-risk LMO applications, but then I hear from others that we should be radically reducing the number of LMOs that are approved. We're trying to hit the right balance here.
With respect to HD Mines, that was not fast-tracked through the A-LMO process. Those were conventional assessments, and I've actually personally reviewed them. I can tell you that officers at Service Canada spent a great deal of time going over those applications. We've asked that they go back and take a look. Was a third language a requirement that seems odd to us? We want to make sure that the process is being rigorously followed by officials.
However, we are trying to strike the right balance. I hope you see, through this study, that we have to be facilitative for employers as well.
