The priority here needs to be regularization. Our international humanitarian commitments require us to allow people to come into Canada and seek asylum.
With the processes we have in place and the safe third country agreement, the lack of support provided to people seeking asylum is shameful and the fact that we do not have a regularization program is shameful. It's something that we have continuously brought forward, and it has continuously been backbenched. This issue would be our number one priority.
The second thing would be increasing the refugee assistance program rates so that we are not bringing refugees to Canada to live in abject poverty.
We are not creating conditions for success, yet refugees are succeeding. They're succeeding on their own volition. They are not succeeding because they are being adequately supported by us.
