Madam Chair, again, budget 2021 does set out a significant down payment towards the modernization of our entire immigration system, and that is something that I'm going to be working on with the member and all members of this committee to advance as quickly as possible. We know that in order to keep Canada's competitive edge, one that we have enjoyed as a result of our innovation, we need to take this down payment and turn it into meaningful transformation.
However, I want to emphasize to all colleagues that we have already begun to innovate. We have moved our processes online, not only in citizenship, not only in permanent residency, but also in the work we're doing with regard to resettling refugees. Right across every line of business, we are leveraging existing technologies so that we can implement digital platform modernization both now and in the long run.
