Mr. Speaker, I can tell the member that last year there were 136,000 detention days; that is individuals in detention in Canada. I can also tell him that the number varies as far as the actual number in detention on any given day. The latest number that I can share with him is that as recently as yesterday, I believe, 467 people were in detention in Canada.
