Thank you, Madam Chair.
I want to start by thanking the minister for coming to this committee again. He has come on a number of occasions. I think he's the minister who shows up in committee the most. Hopefully, that's a good record to have.
Minister, you have spoken often about your commitment to bring more newcomers to Canada permanently and how that's a key factor in addressing our country's economy and our country's labour shortages. That said, what do you think can be done to leverage the skills of those who are already here on a temporary status and ensure that they, too, are able to contribute to our economy?
