Citizenship and Immigration committee  Yes.

Citizenship and Immigration committee  It is a learning curve. You're right.

Citizenship and Immigration committee  Maybe in other services they had success rates before, but with the Syrian refugees, no, they didn't have success rates. So, yes, what you're saying is true. What you're hearing is correct.

Citizenship and Immigration committee  As long as it doesn't get anybody in trouble, then yes.

Citizenship and Immigration committee  It means, literally, left alone. Basically, they're out of the hotel into their housing, and just being left alone. Basically, nobody is telling them what the next step would be. Do I register for school first? Do I look for a family doctor first? Do I get to know the area first?

Citizenship and Immigration committee  To actually fund? Maybe new agencies. I don't want to discredit any other agency, but maybe give opportunity to people in the community to give back to the community; people that are qualified; people that can relate and can actually help them settle, and make the integration process easier and faster.

Citizenship and Immigration committee  By funding a new agency, because if they're going to keep funding the same thing over and over, you're going to keep having the same issues over and over. I know most of the reasoning is going to be manpower, that we weren't expecting this many refugees, but I think that the funding is there.

Citizenship and Immigration committee  You're welcome.

Citizenship and Immigration committee  That's exactly what I mean.

Citizenship and Immigration committee  No.

Citizenship and Immigration committee  Successful in employment or in general?

Citizenship and Immigration committee  There are two paths. The first path was the first proposal I made in my current job that I work at right now, which is the British Columbia Construction Association. It was to create pods. I find someone who actually speaks a little bit of English, connect them with the four or five permanent construction sites.

Citizenship and Immigration committee  Yes, there were a lot of language barriers, but after I had found a foreman who speaks English and connected them with him, they performed perfectly. The people who worked with the Arabic employers performed even better. Because the training comes from the Arabic employer himself, it requires less investment to train them.

Citizenship and Immigration committee  Absolutely. I'm not taking all the credit myself. What I and other people did was to try to give them a little bit of a schedule. School is from 6 p.m. until 9 p.m.. It's almost impossible to get into these classes. If we're able to secure these classes, they get the 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. classes instead of the morning classes.

Citizenship and Immigration committee  I'm sorry, what do you ask?
