In our experience, Canada has really been a leader, especially on the labour mobility pathways for refugees. We're actually inspiring other countries to look at what we're doing there and at how Canada is doing refugee integration.
To add to what Sandra was saying earlier, this program really does rely on standard and regular processing times for permanent residency. One of the challenges with the employment mobility pathway as structured is that the time frame for processing permanent residency started getting longer, trickling into a year and 18 months. For an employer who's making a hire, that's an unreasonable time to wait to get an employee on board. The recommendation we have is to tighten up that time frame to a six-month window.
