Thank you, Madam Chair.
Minister Mendicino, thank you for your transparency and leadership. Thank you again for appearing before the committee. This is your fourth appearance in 2020. I think that the fact that you're coming here to talk to committee members, from all parties, about the issues that we're facing and about possible improvements shows your transparency.
Here's my first question.
Can you tell the committee more about the choices that the department made in August to allow visitors to apply for work permits without leaving the country?
