Thank you, Mr. Chair. I'll be brief.
Minister, you told us that this program had to be put in place at the last minute. It was over the holidays, and it was not easy.
Two years ago, I suggested to your government that IRCC set up an emergency division in order to respond to a major international crisis. If this division had been put in place, Minister, we wouldn't be in this situation. You yourself said that your officials were examining the possibility of implementing it. Two years ago, I presented a ready-made strategy, and now, if it were in place, we'd have taken a completely different approach.
Are you going to set up an emergency division at IRCC in the event of an international crisis? If so, when will this happen?
