I have half a minute; I won't take longer than that.
I also want the minister to tell Canadians that not only did you inherit certain things, you also inherited a surplus. When I see how that surplus is being invested, I really, honestly, cannot see that immigration is a priority for this government, and I think statistics will prove me correct.
You can't have billions and billions of surpluses, a backlog as big as yours, and the competition that exists for global workers, and you and your government not invest more money. I'm not the one who said it needed more money; you said that, so I think you're in agreement with me.
I think this file, the immigration file, in the Conservative government needs to be pushed forward, because it's a very important issue facing Canadians. I think you, as minister, will have to fight a lot harder to get the type of funding and resources required so that immigration is taken seriously in this country.
