Thanks to the member for her question.
First, it's important to note that the department is on track to implement our annual immigration levels plan. We met our objective last year, and we're sure we can reach our target of 465,000 arrivals this year. Results show that the department has been able to meet the objectives set in its annual immigration levels plan for welcoming permanent residents.
However, we always have to strike a balance among economic immigration, family reunification and humanitarian goals, while also taking into account global circumstances and their impact on Canada. However, the funding allocated to us under the immigration levels plan tabled in the House is designed to help us meet our goals for welcoming permanent residents.
Where the pressure is on is in temporary immigration because it has no limits. We're seeing a sharp increase in that area that at times has an impact on the processing of permanent residence applications. However, we've still met our objectives.
