There's a lot in that question. I would like to raise a few things to help respond to it.
First, we are seized with this situation that has arisen as a result of the pandemic. As the minister noted, the immigration-level targets, the interest in international students, the calibre of students becoming permanent residents—that was certainly noted by the minister. We've taken note.
In terms of the expiration of the postgraduate work permit, that is a one-time permit, as I think the member knows, but there are a few things in the interim. We have encouraged a person approaching the end of their expiration to consider applying as a visitor, as a temporary foreign worker. That could be under the international mobility program or the temporary foreign worker program. Those are some options that do exist.
To stay in the country, one of the flexibilities we introduced was the revocation period. That would allow somebody a bit more time to reapply to have status and to perhaps pursue other options.
Madam Chair, as I think the member noted, this is something we are very seized with. We are looking into this.
