Citizenship and Immigration committee  Okay. That delay of one year can also result in a risk to life, because something new can arise that is a humanitarian issue, which cannot be raised after the refugee claim has been refused. We had one example of a woman who went into a coma. She had type 1 diabetes. She was facing removal with her daughters to Angola.

Citizenship and Immigration committee  Thank you.

Citizenship and Immigration committee  Thank you. My name is Geraldine Sadoway, and Rathika Vasavithasan is with me. I'm a staff lawyer at Parkdale Community Legal Services. It is a 40-year-old clinic in Toronto that has produced some of the major lights in immigration and refugee law. In particular, James Hathaway was once one of our students at Parkdale Community Legal Services.
