There's a lot in there. Thank you for that question. It's very important.
I would say get talent here as soon as possible. Look at the innovative programs I mentioned, the high-tech visa and the digital nomad strategy. Digitize the entirety of IRCC and the global talent stream so that the process is smoother. Ensure that there are stronger pathways to permanent residency for folks who come here with that talent.
The reality is that we need it now. The sooner we can get that done, the better, while also looking at things like upskilling and capacity-building.
