One of the things we have noticed in the last few years is the length of time it takes to reunite families. You mentioned in your speech that it's taking something like 16 to 24 months. In some cases it might take a little longer.
What facilities are there, be it from the church or other organizations you are working with, to make sure you provide for the stability and well-being of the families and encourage a healthy state of mind until this reunification of father, mother, and children? Sometimes we have a wife with a couple of kids here. The kids come when they're eight or ten, and it takes three or four years before the father comes. By that time the young adults are 14 or 15, and you see them doing all kinds of weird things and acting out.
What kinds of services are there, or are lacking? What would you recommend this committee supply the communities--what kind of funding or help--to make sure these Canadian families are strong and positive?
