Mr. Speaker, the government continues to be strongly committed to family reunification. I should point out that independent immigrants also bring families with them when they come into this country.
The other thing is that applications on families are on demand. We have no quota. However, the family reunification numbers have gone down primarily due to a change of classification with families as a definition over the last number of years.
A legislative review is taking place. The report will be tabled at the end of December. Perhaps the hon. member and other members of the House would like to participate in discussing how we might define family reunification in the future.
