I don't have a specific person to ask this of, so either one of you can jump in.
There are, by my count—and other groups have said this—60,000 Hong Kongers who have come to Canada under our different pathway schemes. About 10,000 of them have been approved for permanent residency, which leaves about 50,000 in between who are going to be seeking residence in Canada on a more permanent basis. Adding up your numbers, this still leaves tens of thousands of people who could be applying to your companies and other companies that are also MPF providers to get their funds out.
I'm going to ask you this. There were two IRCC officials who came to this committee and blamed other departments for some of the problems associated with figuring out how to get the BNO passport entry off the PR cards. One IRCC official told us it was Transport Canada. Another one told us it was ICAO. Both of those organizations have responded to us. ICAO said it's up to the countries. It has nothing to do with ICAO. Canada is a sovereign state. It can decide how it assigns the codes and it's entirely up to Canada. That was in an email from the legal affairs and external relations bureau. Transport Canada said it's entirely within IRCC's remit. It decides what appears on the PR cards, the residency cards, and the codes under IRCC's internal guidelines.
Do you have any concern, as companies, that there seems to be either chaos or confusion in these government departments about who's responsible for what?
