I'd like to thank the honourable member for the question.
Is the immigration system meeting its objectives? The answer is no, our service standards aren't being met. That said, two important aspects need to be considered in order to solve the problem.
One of the problems we have is the number of places available in the immigration levels plan, and that's an issue with the Province of Quebec.
The other problem is our ability to process applications. I'll ask Mr. Mills to elaborate on that.
