Would you not agree, though, that what we're talking about are people who are coming to this country and represent a danger to our society? Maybe they haven't committed an offence here, but we're saying, “You're not welcome in our country. The Canadian values are different from those you may have espoused somewhere else, or what you intend to bring to this country.”
The real intent of this legislation is not to get to the point where the criminal act occurs in this country; it's to prevent those people from coming into Canada with the intent of committing the criminal acts after they get here.
