This is apart from the process, so it's not meant to slow it down in any way. And the objective of this recommendation is.... As we were looking at the available data and analyzing the economic impact, we realized there was just not that much monitoring of any kind for all these categories.

Thousands of specialized workers and business entrepreneurs come in. I think the general public would benefit from knowing how much good these people do for Canada.
