I appreciate the regional nature of it.

It's a challenge, though. We might bring a particular immigration level into Saskatchewan, let's say, and people might stay there for a particular amount of time before migrating elsewhere, or vice versa. It can be a challenge, I think, at the national level.

Is it fair to say that the immigration levels set at the national level...? Are they premised on the availability of housing and housing development at the provincial level?
