Thank you, Chair.
Thank you, Ms. Bond, for your testimony, and thank you for all the work you have done.
We have heard from some of our previous witnesses in regard to the study about the relationship between the legal and the irregular migration channels, and how cutting down on the availability of the regular and legal migration streams usually leads to an increase in migrants seeking irregular channels, often at great risk and cost.
Can you please discuss the relationship between the legal and the irregular channels? Are there any legal channels that can be made so that we can discourage the irregular channels?
