First, you have to accept the fact that what we are trying to do is hard. That can be seen from your question. Mr. Arnal described the situation earlier. It is clearly not just a matter of convincing immigrants that Moncton or Saint-Boniface is going to be their destination; it's a matter of convincing them to come and stay there. So it is not just a matter of recruitment; there is also an integration and retention effort involved. That is why this strategic plan covers all of these issues.
In terms of immigration, take the very good example of Manitoba. For years, that province had been dealing with demographic challenges. So why do you think that Manitoba is now managing not only to recruits immigrants, together with the federal government, but also to keep them? It is because they set up reception structures, targeted the type of immigrants who would want to stay in Manitoba and lastly, designed recruiting tools with us and developed some of their own. That is what we have to do. The job has to be done in several stages.
Research shows that if a person has lived temporarily in Canada, as a student or temporary worker, the chances of that person settling and staying in the community where he or she lived temporarily is much higher than for a person coming from a broad as an immigrant, first settling in Toronto, for example, and then deciding to go and live in Alberta because the job market was better there at that time.
