Yesterday the minister made the comment that's it's not a right to come to Canada, it's a privilege. I understand that if you're at the port of entry, that is a privilege. However, I believe that it's a right to apply. However, it's not the minister's right for her to refuse the application, as Bill C-50 is moving to. I see you shaking your head, and I thank you for that.
Yesterday officials of CIC were telling folks, “Well, you can keep reapplying for 50 years. And thank you very much for applying. Every time you apply, you're going to be paying money to consultants, you're going to be paying fees. We don't know if these fees will be returned. There will be a processing fee.” So somebody who really wants to come to Canada could be applying for five or ten years, and that's an injustice to that individual.
