Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
I want to welcome you all.
I think you could very well be ironic today and tell us that you had warned us. As I read through the notes and the testimony of the various people who appeared before this Committee in 2002, it is very clear that what you told us in 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2006 did indeed happen. It is unfortunate.
The safe third country agreement rested on the premise that Canada and the United States offered sufficient protection. But your report documents weaknesses in the refugee determination system of the United States.
Could you tell us about the areas of concerns and the discussions that are taking place presently in the United States with regards to the refugee determination system?
