We don't work with the provinces on immigration. That's an area of shared jurisdiction. That being the case, it's important that when figures are established for various categories, the provinces should be aware of their communities' needs. It's also important for the federal government to ask the right questions about the needs of these communities.
I feel that it's part of a proactive and differentiated approach that gives due regard to positive measures and allows us to work towards genuine equality. Of course, we are in a federated country. We know the areas of jurisdiction, but it's still important for the various levels of government to work together.
