Mr. Speaker, government documents show that about 1.1 million temporary resident visas will expire by the end of next year, yet when asked at committee how his department would ensure these individuals leave once their visas expire, the immigration minister had no plan. After nine years of mismanagement, the minister's only solution is to hope people leave voluntarily. At committee, he deflected, offering vague answers about monitoring and partner organizations. Canadians deserve better than a minister who cannot explain how his own department enforces immigration rules.
We need a Canada first plan that will fix the immigration system the government broke. Canada needs a serious enforceable immigration plan that protects our system's integrity. The Prime Minister's YouTube videos of bogus claims on immigration only create more chaos, mismanagement and uncertainty. The PM claimed in the same YouTube fantasy video that immigration would balance itself out. Is he kidding us? Only common-sense Conservatives will fix this broken Liberal immigration system.
