Thank you for your question.
In fact, since the government completely eliminated the promotion budgets for Destination Canada in Budget 2012, the resources that allow us to do the promotion of our communities as host communities have been very curtailed.
There is no support from the federal government. There is some support from provincial and territorial governments. Otherwise, it would be impossible for us to participate in the exhibitions or international employment fairs. I know that the colleges do so, but it is not possible for our community organizations and our immigration networks, except with some assistance from the province.
That said, I know that Citizenship and Immigration Canada has created positions in Africa, in Morocco and Senegal. We hope that the creation of those positions is going to allow for increased promotion of the communities. We would also very much like to see the involvement of the Department of Foreign Affairs as well.
