Thank you very much.
I imagine that Ms. Long's answer would be the same. It was worth explaining what biometrics are for, so that we can include it in the report.
I have another question about work permits. I'm still asking Ms. Goldthorpe and Ms. Long.
We got rid of the good old “flagpoling” to prevent people from going to the border to renew their work permits. The problem is that it can now take up to 180 days. People end up with implied status, which is not always recognized by the employer.
Should we make sure that the work permit issue, which is purely administrative, is dealt with quickly so that people are not stuck with implied status that can be problematic? This is particularly the case for guardian angels, who may not even be able to accumulate the number of hours needed to register for the program that has been announced.
