Thank you, Madam Chair.
My question is for the Peel District School Board.
I know that in September 2015 your school board wrote to the prime minister at the time urging that Canada bring in more Syrian refugees. In that letter, your board chair wrote that through your three We Welcome the World Centres, co-funded with Citizenship and Immigration Canada, you have had the privilege of welcoming refugees from Syria and other war-torn areas to your community and to your schools.
I know that since November 4, our government has brought in 27,580 refugees.
Can you tell me what the impact has been? What have the students learned about other children from other countries with dire circumstances? Do you believe there is more capacity for your board to accept more refugee children, moving forward?
