There are concerns in different areas. I didn't mention our humanitarian program, but I think we need a total revisit of our refugee program and our humanitarian program.
We should definitely establish annual levels so that we're not misleading applicants. They know that if they don't fit in to the current quota, they won't have expectations that they're going to come in quickly. I think we should have done that years ago, and I don't know why we didn't.
Certainly in the case of parents, that program should really be revisited. The Liberals, in fact, looked at it back in 2004, and they realized that it was costing us a mint. They reduced the intake to one-third. There was pressure from immigrant communities, and the next year the levels shot right back up. They knew that something had to be done, but they got cold feet. I hope that after much discussion and after getting everyone's input, this government hangs in there. This is a program that is hugely costly.
I think refugee policy needs to be looked at.
I think overall levels have to be looked at. There is no reason why we have among the highest net per capita immigration levels in the world. In terms of the backlog, we just have to bite the bullet and say that there are a lot of people in that backlog we can't accommodate, and they should have to accept it. Now, there will be terrific opposition from immigration lawyers and immigration advocacy groups, and there should be a public debate on this. I think the facts, as far as I can make out, are quite clear as to what we need to do.
I don't know if I gave you three, three and a half, or four recommendations.
