Mr. Collacott, if I understand your testimony correctly, you don't think we need immigration to meet Canada's domestic labour needs. Citizenship and Immigration Canada on its website says that Canada, because of aging population and reduced birth rates, will be dependent upon new immigrants for 100% of our new labour growth in five years. I'm going to ask you whether you think CIC is wrong about that.
Second, the Conservatives, when they took power, increased immigration levels from an average of 220,000 a year to 254,000 a year, a 14% increase. Last year they let in 280,000—the highest in half a century at 0.8% of the population.
Do you think they were incorrect in doing that as well?
