No. Let me specify, however, a few things about what we are or are not saying about those other kinds of cases. For exactly the reason you've described, we're not saying there should be a legal right for permanent residents and others to consular assistance. That's not the law. It's not international law. It's not national law.
We've highlighted this because over the years—and this has crossed all governments going back my 18 years—we have seen real inconsistencies in the response families get when they show up in an MP's office, or some other government office, on behalf of a permanent resident or a loved one. Sometimes they're simply told there is nothing they can do for a non-citizen; sometimes there is some effort to explore some avenues; and sometimes fairly active advocacy is taken up even at high levels of government.
We're suggesting that it would be really helpful for all concerned, including MPs sitting in their offices, if there were some guidelines that sought to bring greater predictability, consistency, and fairness to how these cases are dealt with.
