Right now, it takes an average of two and a half years for the federal government to process applications; some have been waiting for 13 years. The federal government's system is broken.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7116143\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Is the Prime Minister okay with the fact that his government is abandoning immigrants selected by Quebec who live in Quebec, work in Quebec and study in Quebec?</p>",

La machine est bris\u00e9e \u00e0 Ottawa.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7116143\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Est-ce que le premier ministre trouve acceptable qu'un immigrant choisi par Qu\u00e9bec, qui vit au Qu\u00e9bec, qui travaille au Qu\u00e9bec, qui \u00e9tudie au Qu\u00e9bec, soit abandonn\u00e9 par son propre gouvernement?</p>"
