Mr. Speaker, on this side of the House, we are proud to serve with this Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship. We are proud of our immigration track record. We are proud that she is the first Lebanese woman to hold this position. She has a background in public service that includes serving as a minister and an MP in Nova Scotia and as a minister here. The results speak for themselves: Asylum claims are down by a third. The number of international students has dropped by a third. From July to October, Canada's population has decreased. This minister is doing her job.
