Thank you, Mr. Chair.
As we have already said, on behalf of all Canadians, our government's priority is creating jobs and stimulating economic growth. I want to congratulate our witnesses for their role in implementing the program we're discussing today. It will go a long way towards improving Canada's situation. I also want to congratulate you for looking to the best practices of other countries. Canadians very much appreciate when we don't reinvent the wheel.
In my riding, I've seen new Canadians trained as doctors or engineers driving taxi cabs. That tells us there isn't necessarily compatibility between the demand for workers and the immigrants we're attracting.
How do you think the expression of interest program will bridge the gap between immigrants and the demand for workers?
