On that note, I do have some suggestions on both provisions.
On the first provision related to the categories of groups on the express entry procedures, I am troubled by the fact that there is no parliamentary oversight as to what these groups will be. There's no process as to whether these groups will be fair or how effective they will be in selecting people who would provide economic contributions to Canada. I know that there's this broad notion that they would have to provide some sort of contribution. We just heard from officials as well that they actually don't know who these groups might be at this point in time. We have no inkling of that.
I think it would be very important for us to request that FINA includes, by way of an amendment to this provision, that the government list out the groups that they are intending for this to affect.
Also, it's important to ensure that there is a transparent selection process to determine who will get on the list of occupations that are needed. Without a transparent selection process whereby industries are able to provide formal submissions on which occupations are in need, and without an objective committee to determine the needs of these occupations, the process could become fodder for lobbying industries. That's not what we want.
I think we need to have established criteria and a transparent process. I would like to make that suggestion by way of amendments for FINA to incorporate into this provision.
