Madam Speaker, last month, I asked the Minister of Immigration about the unacceptable delays in processing applications for workers who are already in the country, spousal sponsorship cases, and other foreign workers who are still waiting their turn. Canadian businesses are losing contracts because of these delays.
The minister talked about increasing capacity in order to process 6,000 applications a month. At that rate, it will take 10 years.
Can he explain his math and guarantee that businesses will have access to foreign workers in 2021?
