Good afternoon. This is meeting 55 of the Standing Committee on Citizenship and Immigration. Pursuant to Standing Order 108(2), and the motion adopted by the committee on October 4, 2016, the committee will resume its study on immigration consultants.
We have one witness who is not here yet. We're going to proceed, and hopefully he will join us soon.
Each of the witnesses will have up to seven minutes to make a presentation to the committee.
We have Leslie Emory from the Ontario Council of Agencies Serving Immigrants, who is a board director. We also have Maria Esel Panlaqui from Thorncliffe Neighbourhood Office of Toronto. Maria is a settlement worker. We also have Michelle Marie Dulanas.
Good afternoon to all of you. We will start with Ms. Emory for seven minutes please.
