Madam Speaker, I congratulate the member's mother on her arrival here 50 years ago.
The member talked a lot about the importance of immigration and the immigrant community in her riding. There is an injection of $25 million in this budget to process family class applications. In the last five years, from 2010 to 2015, the Conservative government cut $350 million out of processing on the immigration file. During the campaign, the Liberals promised a one time injection of $25 million, plus an ongoing $50 million each year after that. That is nowhere to be found in the budget.
Would the member stand with me and call on her government to keep that promise to inject the additional $50 million each year so we can get the backlog and the processing done?
