Thank you.
I agree entirely that enforcement laws are meaningless if we don't have the capacity to enforce them.
I would underscore that since coming to office in 2006 our government has provided an additional 800 agents to the Canada Border Services Agency, and the proportionate operating budget to support that enhanced level of enforcement activity, so they do have additional resources. I have asked the president of the CBSA to prioritize investigations, prosecutions, and enforcement of crimes committed by unregistered or unscrupulous immigration consultants, as well as to prioritize those who facilitate or commit marriage fraud, which is a significant problem.
We've given them a significant boost in resources--I don't have the exact figure, but the additional budget is certainly in the hundreds of millions of dollars---and 800 additional officers, so we expect them to enforce the law. That's their mandate.
