We'll also offer a number of other suggestions that relate to the topic under study.
The proposal essentially looks at the existing regulations, the existing legislation. What we suggest is that there are things the government can do right now without a legislative change. There are processes that exist in our current law. We also try to look at who exactly we mean when we talk about people without status and how they came to be in that situation. I don't want to go into it in too much detail, but it does deal with the situation of refugees, as well as the situation of people who are not refugees—sponsored family members or family members who came through other means, women who have been trafficked, seasonal agricultural workers, and live-in caregivers. All these people have, for the most part, entered Canada legally, one way or the other, through one or another of Canada's various programs, but due to circumstances and the complications of legislation and procedure, have become out of status. Almost all of them have, without a doubt, continued to work to support themselves in Canada, because they are often not eligible for programs and services.
So again, everything we propose in the document we believe can be accomplished without an extraordinary investment in resources by the government and can certainly be facilitated by community organizations that work with these populations.
I'll stop there and let Francisco continue.
