Mr. Speaker, I want to thank the member for her tireless work on behalf of newcomers. I want to point out that a low moment the old government imposed a $970 tax on immigrants to Canada. We have cut that in half in the budget. We will eliminate it as finances permit.
However, it goes beyond that. We are providing $307 million to the provinces for settlement. We are providing money for recognizing credentials.
We have done more in 13 weeks than that old government did in 13 years.
