Thank you.
We've had witnesses in front of our committee, departmental officials, who stated that only nine Yazidi refugees were admitted to Canada from the 25,000 that the Liberal government initially expedited. My colleagues have asked questions about the number of Yazidis that it would be realistic to process in the four-month window that is now three months, yet you were able to process over 25,000 refugees within a similar period with this government.
I'm just wondering why so few Yazidis were referred to Canada as part of your referral process, and what steps you've undertaken to rectify that gross negligence.
