We think that an ideal processing time is in the six- to twelve-month time horizon. As the member has said, they do take into account how long it's going to take their application to be processed in terms of how they are interacting with our system.
But information gets out of date. When there are long waiting times, then information gets out of date. Ideally, we'd be in that six- to twelve-month period and people would be finding out one way or another—of course, we don't approve all applications—what their situation is. We do find that annually there is what we call a wastage rate on visas that we issue and are not taken up. It's typically fairly low, but we do factor that into our calculations.
The member is quite correct. Canada remains a very popular destination of choice. There's no shortage of people who want to come here.
