Thank you, Mr. Chair.
As we see in the report, the provincial nominee programs have grown quite significantly and are expected to continue to grow. They are not subject to the same system as the federal skilled worker program is federally. They are, as we mentioned in the report, quite diverse. Criteria vary from province to province, and even though there is a requirement that they furnish information to the federal government, that information is often lacking, so the federal government doesn't have a good understanding of what the various programs are and who is coming in under those programs.
There is mobility in this country, so you would expect much greater coordination, or at least an understanding of who the immigrants are who are coming into the country under the programs and whether they are filling the labour market needs today and also going forward. We would have expected to see that broader analysis done.
