As I mentioned, I would get more specific, but I want to remind this member that this particular government has taken steps to address issues that have concerned newcomers, and indeed, after about nine or ten years of funding freezes, has committed $307 million to help integrate newcomers and citizens into our country, including opening up temporary foreign worker units in both Calgary and Vancouver. So there is a significant interest in this issue.
Specifically, because of the western hemisphere travel initiative, some anomalies have been brought to the attention of this government that have been there for a long time and need some remedy.
To the minister, in addition to some of the issues I've raised that we've already dealt with in the one year, what do you perceive as your direction for the next year on various issues, including specifically many of the anomalies that have been brought to your attention? And how might the committee be helpful in addressing these particular issues?
