The amendments to the act in 2001 expanded the definition of the general protection grounds to include persons in need of protection.
The humanitarian and compassionate is a different beast. As I said, it's not to do with asylum. It's not to do with refugee protection. It's to do with the circumstances of the person in Canada, and that's really an immigration issue. So I think it's important that discretion over humanitarian and compassionate admission to the country remain a ministerial discretion and that it not be appropriated by the board.
