Mr. Speaker, I agree with my hon. colleague that we must correct the misinformation out there.
I am very proud of the members of caucus and the government who travelled to the United States and Africa to speak with communities, to be able to be there and set the record straight.
We are very proud of the fact that the figures are down compared to August of last year.
The message we want to convey to the rest of the world is that we have a strong immigration system and that there is no free pass to enter Canada.
As I said, we are proud of the very positive results. I hope that this will carry on. We will continue to work hard to ensure that it does.
I wish my hon. colleague a wonderful evening.
