Thank you, Mr. Chair, and thank you as well to each of our guests. It's a pleasure to have you here today and to listen to your speeches.
My colleagues across the floor have touched base on the ten-year multi-entry visa. I'm going to ask a few more questions on it as well.
Our government made that announcement back in July of this year, raising the period of time from five years to ten years. We have touched base on it very briefly. But I'm curious. We realize that many parents or elders or grandparents and older parents want to come to Canada but don't necessarily want to make it a permanent residence. They want to come to visit family for taking care of the household and the children and so on.
I'm going to direct this question first to Mr. Tam. I wonder whether you have an idea offhand of approximately what the number of parents or grandparents is who want to come here to visit, to use this multi-entry ten-year visa.
