Thank you very much, Madam Chair.
I want to congratulate the interpreters, who are here in person today. It makes a big difference for me, since I always rely 100% on the earpiece. I really want to thank them for being here. It makes things much better.
Ms. O'Gorman, usually I ask you questions about container clearance at small ports. We're going to change the subject today. I'm sure you're pleased about that.
I'm having a little trouble understanding your connection to the study. The Canada Border Services Agency isn't necessarily the subject of the Auditor General's report, but it is an important partner of the Department of Citizenship and Immigration.
I know from personal experience that there are students who are unable to cross the border, even when they have their study permits, because the agency sometimes detects fraud at border crossings.
Can you tell us what your role is in relation to what we are examining today? Are you awaiting best practices from the department? What can you do to improve the department's response in the matter we are discussing today?
