I must first say that we have a good spirit of cooperation in immigration between our government and that of Quebec. I know that Quebec is looking to fill a significant labour gap.
On December 4, 2020, cases related to applications received under the qualified worker category were all open. All the applications received since January have been entered into the system. An acknowledgement of receipt has been sent to nearly 16,000 applicants in the skilled worker category. Since November 2020, amended acknowledgements of receipt have been sent daily for all the applications received up until January 2021.
We will continue to cooperate with the Government of Quebec. This is good not only for the economy, but for everyone.
