Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I believe Mr. El‑Khoury was trying to differentiate between the situation in Afghanistan and the situation in Ukraine. I have a great deal of respect for Mr. El‑Khoury, by the way. He's one of my favourite colleagues.
Earlier, I talked about different criteria being used for Afghans than for Ukrainians. I mentioned the biometrics issue.
Mr. Khan, you said that you had already obtained security clearance and that you had worked for the Canadian military. Do you not see a dichotomy, discrepancy or issue there?
I agree that some Ukrainian groups are low-risk groups, and I understand that they have been exempted from providing their biometrics. However, why would you, the Afghan interpreters, and your family members be required to provide this data?
That's one of the things I want to address today.
