Evidence of meeting #38 for Citizenship and Immigration in the 40th Parliament, 2nd session. (The original version is on Parliament’s site, as are the minutes.) The winning word was services.
A recording is available from Parliament.
Acting Senior Manager, Calgary Immigrant Educational Society
Our agency from Calgary has been in the business for 22 years. The only program funded by CIC so far is language instruction.
I can give you another example. There is drop-in ESL funded by the Government of Canada and the Government of Alberta and filled by Canadian volunteers. We don't spend money on that.
For CIC, we only have the English language. We are trying to utilize it to the max.

Thank you kindly, sirs.
