Thank you, Madam Chair.
Thank you to the officials for being here today.
I'd like to continue with the deputy minister and start off with a vote in the House of Commons about vulnerable Uyghurs, which was passed unanimously by our previous prime minister and all parties. All who voted supported the motion to welcome 10,000 Uyghurs to Canada, who are facing great oppression in China.
I'm very happy and pleased that, in the levels plan in 2023, the government indicated that Uyghurs who are deeply vulnerable would be resettled to Canada. I met some who have come to Canada as a result of this program. They're extremely grateful to Canada and Canadians for providing security and safety, which, they said, was the first time they felt and tasted such a thing in their lives, in some cases.
I would like to ask what the progress is in terms of the implementation of M-62, which called for 10,000 vulnerable Uyghurs to be resettled in Canada from third countries. What is the progress, and what are the future expectations for the implementation of this motion and will of Parliament?
