Mr. Speaker, the government takes very seriously the obligations of those who sponsor immigrants.
The Harris government and others would prefer to look at failure rates and default rates. The government prefers to look at success rates. The facts are that in Toronto, 86% of sponsorship applications are met. Across this country the rate of successful sponsorship is 90%. When I was in school if we got a mark of 86% or 90% we got an A and that was pretty good.
