Mr. Speaker, the federal court has ruled that foreigners serving sentences in Canadian prisons are entitled to the same rights as Canadians. This means that even if criminals are under orders to be deported they can apply for unescorted day parole.
There is only one way to prevent these criminals from being released. Immigration officials must convince the IRB that they are likely to disappear.
Will the immigration minister promise today that she will fight every single request for parole, or will she just let them all walk free?
