I'd like to know who's doing the promotion outside the country.

An Ontario company was hired to recruit people, who would arrive at Pearson airport and be taken over by the Centre francophone du Grand Toronto.

I'm familiar with the work done by RDÉE Canada and, in terms of employability, the Fédération des femmes acadiennes de la Nouvelle-Écosse, or FFANE, helps people get settled.

What I want to know is if there's a company in Canada that's funded to do recruitment. Who receives these people at Pearson airport? How do things work there?
