Thank you, Madam Chair. Thank you to our witnesses for being here today and for your presentations.
My first question will be to you, Ms. Anson-Cartwright. In a previous meeting, this committee heard from Department of Citizenship and Immigration officials who stated that the key objectives of the new EOI system, this recruiting system, is to improve application management and reduce processing backlogs, to increase the labour market responsiveness of the immigration system, and to strengthen the provincial, territorial, and employer role.
Would you expand on how this new recruitment model will change the employer role?
