Thank you for the comment from my colleague, but absolutely the fee and wait times are in the same part.
Let me get back to the wait time that my friend is interested in. The wait time, under this government, for the skilled worker category is now less than one year, not six years or plus.
Having said all of that, as the majority of the south Asian community in Calgary lives in my riding, I would like to ask my question, and address it to Mr. Manicom.
Mr. Manicom, I understand that in tackling wait times, we must make smart decisions, and we must make the decisions that are in the best interest of Canada. I would like to ask you what sort of problems you see specifically in your region that can account for prolonged applicant wait times.
