The short answer to your question is yes, but I just want to be specific that it will depend on conversations that I've not yet had.
I did have the chance to meet with FCFA previously. We've been working towards the 2023 goal for some time now and I'm confident we can achieve it. To the extent that we want to do more after we achieve and hopefully surpass that target, of course we're willing to do more.
More specifically, one thing I'm really interested in, which I think the committee would benefit from knowing about and perhaps advising me on, is that there's a massive opportunity
to use the flexibility the express entry system affords. It would be a good thing if we could select francophones with health care and teaching skills so they could come and work in our communities.
If there are other strategies that people think we can adopt to actually do this, it would would be very helpful to me.
