Thank you.
Mr. Taylor, I had the pleasure of meeting with several of your members a week or two ago. If I understand the perspective of the restaurant industry in Canada, it's that you perceive a looming skill shortage that cannot be filled by the domestic Canadian population. You would like to see a temporary foreign worker program expanded to permit more of those workers who come and get trained and established in your members' establishments the opportunity to, perhaps, apply for permanent residency, maybe the same way as people do under the live-in caregiver program, so that if they come and work for two years in a four-year period, they could then have a path to permanent residency.
If I understood your members' response, they thought that would be a good thing. After going through the trouble of training the workers and getting them established, they would like to hang on to these workers.
Is that right?
