First, I would like to clarify that my two-year process goes back six years, so things have evolved since that time.
As you know, the Avantage significatif francophone program was abolished in September 2014 and the Mobilité francophone program started on June 1 this year. Two years ago, we did a lot of work to make employers aware of the program. We had some excellent success, and then it was abolished. For two years, nothing happened and then the requirements for labour market impact assessments, LMIAs, were tightened. The posting had to be longer and the fees for employers increased. In cases of misconduct, you even went onto a list of unsatisfactory people, and so on. So employers have become more and more cautious about work permits for people who are not in the country.
When Mobilité francophone returned, I genuinely felt that 50% of the awareness work had already been done. With time, we found out that about 70% of the work had to be done again. It was no longer 50%, it was 70%.
