Canada's immigration policy launched around 2016-17 has clearly had all kinds of consequences. Until last year, Canada had the highest immigration rate in the world. As a result, the country experienced an explosion in migration, but the government did not anticipate that this would have such a significant impact on the unemployment rate during a slower phase of the economic cycle. As you say, and as I also emphasized, not only young people are affected by this very large entry policy for newcomers, who are obviously looking for a first job here. The policy also affects immigrants themselves. Those are the two groups that are suffering from the increase in unemployment. In that sense, immigrants themselves are victims of Canada's immigration policy.
We know that the Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship who was in office last year, Mr. Miller, as well as Ms. Diab, who succeeded him this year, have introduced measures to moderate this immigration policy. Obviously, I think it's a step in the right direction. The question is whether it will go far enough to restore the economy to the peaceful level it was at before 2016. We'll see.
