“The government's own reports found fraud, weak oversight, and corrupt schemes in this immigration program. Why did the government fail to act before the backlog passed 43,000 applications? Why did it hand off the approval process to an outside group?”
“Mr. Chair, it is not that I want to correct the minister by her trying to correct what she had already said, that the program had been rife with corruption, but the IRCC’s own evaluations identified problematic applications, weak oversight and pay-to-incubate schemes involving designated organizations. Why did your government fail to act before the backlog exploded past 43,000 applications? Why did you subcontract a designated organization approval process to NACO? Does the minister know what NACO is?”
