I think it is really unfortunate that our colleagues from across the table do not remember Seidu Mohammed's testimony. That may be insensitivity on their part. I vividly remember his testimony before our committee. He was very clear: if the provisions proposed by the government had been in force, he would have been removed to Ghana and his life would now be in danger. I don't know where my colleague was during that testimony. Perhaps he did not listen to the witness's statement or was insensitive to it. I was personally very touched, and that is why I have taken his call to action to remove these clauses from the bill very seriously.
We are here today to protect people like Mr. Mohammed, who have found refuge in Canada. Given the government's insensitivity, those people may find themselves in a country where their life would be in danger. So I am appealing to my colleagues' humanity to ensure that this does not happen again, whether we are talking about that witness or any other individual seeking asylum in Canada.
