Mr. Speaker, for generations, Canada has been a place where people come to build a better life. During my last constituency week, I had the privilege of attending the grand opening of the Oshawa Clarington Welcome Centre and Durham Resettlement Assistance Program House, both of which provide essential settlement services to newcomers in our region. Canada's immigration system has always been about more than just arrivals; it is about helping newcomers build a life, contribute to our communities and strengthen our economy. In recent years, we have seen many pressures that have tested the limits of that system.
This is why I am proud our government is restoring integrity to the immigration system by bringing down levels to be sustainable, while improving the immigration process and ensuring people get jobs in the fields where their skills are really needed. With every successful settlement journey, we are building a stronger Canada for everyone. This is how we fulfill the promise of Canada.
