Thank you very much.
I read your op-ed on March 9 in the Toronto Star. Among other things, in discussing immigration, you quoted Statistics Canada when you wrote, “immigrants remain deeply embedded across Canada's labour market: they make up more than a third of workers in accommodation and food services, transportation and warehousing, and professional and technical sectors, and over one-fifth of the construction workforce. As such, a very large share of economic outputs is produced by immigrants.”
With your final points, could you go into that further, less so on the data side and more so in terms of the economic contribution that immigrants continue to make in this country? The government has increased the proportion of economic migrants to 64%. There's no nation building that can happen without immigrants, as you've said.
