Thank you very much, Madam Chair.
I thank the witnesses for being here.
My first questions will be directed primarily to those representing the Canadian Horticultural Council and Food and Beverage Canada.
You talked about possibly having trusted employer programs. You also said that the same employees generally come back year after year to meet the same demand for work, in the same setting. So the needs are predictable.
Would it not be easier for you if the duration of LMIAs, work permits and visas were extended? Would that be a feasible option, since the situation is practically the same every time?
