Federal Government Reorganization from a Canadian Immigration Standpoint
Montreal, QC (PRWeb) January 8, 2007 -- With the Conservative government's recent cabinet reorganization, the Right Honourable Monte Solberg's term of office as the Canadian federal Minister of Immigration has ended. Prime Minister Harper has repositioned him to the post of Minister of Human Resources and Social Development Canada (HRSDC). The former Minister of HRSDC, the Right Honourable Diane Finley, will take over from Solberg as the new Immigration Minister.
In keeping with the federal government's mandate to facilitate the entry of foreign workers to Canada, the reorganization of these departments is methodical and calculated. Both ministers will bring the perspective gained from their former roles to build on their existing relationship.
Canadian immigration attorney David Cohen of the law firm of Campbell Cohen is optimistic about the minister swap, calling it "implicit recognition by the federal government that there must be a partnership between the two departments to bring foreign workers to Canada more efficiently." Working together, the Immigration Department and HRSDC are poised to implement policies to facilitate the influx of foreign skilled workers that is needed by many sectors of the Canadian economy.
The role reversal translates to a good fit for both ministers. Finley is a native of Ontario, the beacon province for newly arrived immigrants. Solberg hails from Alberta, the area where employers are most hard-pressed to find qualified employees.
This past year, the Department of Immigration and HRSDC have been cooperating extensively to create programs that improve the situation for both domestic employers and immigrant workers seeking permanent residency in Canada. Solberg and Finley will soon have experience dealing directly with both stakeholder groups.

I have always considered patriotism to be something that has little place outside of sports but before I touch upon that I would like to make an attempt at defining what exactly is patriotism. Patriotism as a dictionary would say is love of ones country but what exactly does this in my opinion vague explanation mean in practice? We can say that love is a strong feeling of affection one person can have for his or her children or the person he or she is married to. This love can manifest itself in many ways but predominantly share the main goal which is to provide that person with joy and happiness.
