Mr. Speaker, I rise to comment on the recent announcement concerning citizen court judges.
On behalf of my riding I would like to express sincere thanks to the minister of immigration for this step. Not only does the minister's plan promise to save the government money and end a cycle of patronage, but it puts more meaning into the proceedings surrounding becoming a Canadian citizen.
Those who are concerned with the deficit or patronage should be well pleased with the minister of immigration for a job well done.
