Yes, absolutely. This is going to make the imbalance worse, whereas francophone immigration had been put in place to redress the demographic imbalance. With regard to selection, we see that certain avenues are going to favour anglophone immigration. Temporary immigrants will become permanent immigrants. We don't have much confidence in that avenue either. We see nothing that will encourage francophone immigrants to settle here. The imbalance will be evident.
I'd like to change something I said regarding consultations. After the fact, in February, CIC began to hold pan-Canadian consultations to see how the Express Entry system could be adapted for francophone communities. On February 19, people from that department came to see us. I also spoke with my colleagues from the other provinces. The consultations highlight the challenges rather than the solutions. We don't quite know what they are going to produce.
