Thank you very much, Mr. Godin.
In these countries, everyone knows someone who has been to Canada. These are very tight-knit communities, and people will rely on what they hear from their third neighbour rather than consulting a lawyer, a notary or a regulated Canadian immigration consultant. They will believe the wonderful story they are told and cannot afford to pay a lot of money. They are going to go through a process that is often bound to fail, because they are misled by people who are often unscrupulous or have absolutely no experience in this area.
So when I talk about strengthening the role of representatives, it is really to make it clear to people that they should not give their money to just about anyone if they want to immigrate to Canada, but that they should work with people whose skills we have verified. We have professional associations that are supervised and whose members can provide appropriate advice.
